Any one towing with a F250 6.2 Gasser?
If so what brand of unit do you have? We are going to the RV show in Atlanta and will be looking at 5th wheels. We will be in the market for a new trailer some time this year. We have a 2015 F2...

Question, approx how much does the 5th wheel hitch weigh? When looking at units trying to figure out how much to deduct from my cargo capacity for the hitch.
If my trucks capacity is 3123 lbs with 13,300 want to determine what the weights I should look at. The one that the wife likes (Keystone Sprinter Limited) has cargo capacity of 3200 lbs. Dry weight of 10,800 and dry hitch weight of 2180. The stuff in our current trailer weights around 1,000 lbs. I don't see us ever getting close to 3200 lbs. Wife has OCD and packs very light :)
I am using this trailer as example to show her what we should be looking at. From reading posts here it seems to be this would not be a fun tow. Which I don't want, but need to show the numbers to the wife so she will look at some of the Jayco's that are a bit lighter.
