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. Is there a calculation form/sheet that is definative?
TV is a 2012 F250 crew cab,4x4,SWB, Turbo Diesel 6.7, 355 gears,airbags. GVWR 10000#lb,FRT GAWR 5200#lb,Rear GAWR 6100#lb.
5th wheel info, Heartland Keylargo, Dry weight 13014#lb, Cargo not to exceed 3185#lb, GVWR/PNBV 16250#lb, GAWR/PNB (each axle) 7000#lb.
Can someone tell me how to figure what my truck can pull? Ford said I can pull this as well as the dealer. I am not sure.
Please Help.
It's not what you can TOW; it's what you can CARRY. That's the big lie that they all tell...unless you run into the 2 or 3 honest sales people out there.
