Heck..
my truck has a max pin weight of 4020# and is a newer generation ( 2020 ) F350 SRW.. I also have disc brakes on the fiver, stopping in a panic is NOT an issue... IF your ok towing at MAXIMUM, it can be done safely
Hope you weigh under 170# and have stripped everything including bolt on aftermarket parts if you want to stay within the limits.
(170# + 3850# = 4020#)
I'm not suggesting, the truck will immediately roll over and explode but it's misleading to suggest you can do it within the weight limits.
PS: Where do you find the "max pin weight" rating? I've only ever found the GVWR and axle ratings. Or are you speaking of the rating on the hitch which is independent of the truck ratings?
