How can I calculate what size 5th wheel I can tow?

Can I tow it or not. I am somewhat new at 5th wheel camping. I need help from an unbiased opinion. When you talk to a salesman you get one answer and even the Ford dealers tell me different numbers...

Have you looked I your owners manual? I Have an older 250 and the manual is quite explicit on all of the different size trucks, gear ratios, engines, body stiles and kind of trailers 5TH and TT. Listing the maximum weights of each class.
