Another "am I overloaded" thread
Wife and I found a 5er we really like. Keystone Hideout 315RDTS. I would like to hear some real world examples from people who tow something similar to this with the same type of TV as mine. Any is...

Don't know where you get the idea I think you are crazy.
I have never stated your set up was out of bounds or way overloaded :H
Read the forth post in the thread again. Then someone got all crazy with really light weights about the TV.
I posted.
"Other than being over the TV 10K GVWR by around 1,000, you should be fine. With a hitch and a few other things your truck will be over 8500 lbs ready to tow. Our SRW RAM 3500 is in the 8700-8900 range ready to tow with a manual slider. You will be close to the 6100 RGAWR." Chris
I posted 'CURB' weights on OPs truck and MY truck
Only 218# difference
OPs GVWR is 10,000# and Mine is 10,100#
Only 100# difference
OPs scaled weight 8180# and MY scaled weight is 7980#
Only 200# difference
No way OPs truck will be 1000# over trucks GVWR with a 12K 5th wheel
A few hundred lbs...YES but no where near 1000#
6100# RAWR...with the 12K trailer fully loaded will be close but with 3750# tires no where near their ratings
Like I posted ...no big deal
