F250 and Jayco Eagle HT 27.5 rlts

Does anyone out there have this combo?

I am looking for a 2012 or newer F250 to replace my F150 so later this year I can buy the Eagle HT 27.5 rlts. I have heard a few ppl complain about their F250 height vs the 5th wheel riding too tall on the front end.

Does anyone know if the F250 4x2 vs 4x4 makes a difference in how tall it sits?

Does anyone have any experience with this setup? I have already purchased the hitch - CURT -16120 Q16.

Please let me know

    I have a 2015 F250 CC 4x4 SB. I tow a 2014 Jayco Eagle HT 26.5 RLS with an Anderson Ultimate 5th wheel connection. My camper rides a little nose high but nothing I can't live with. If I knew how to post a picture I would! Sorry!

    Shouldn't be an issue with either. The 4x4 sits about 1" higher than the 4x2.
