Need weight verification Please!
Hello All! I am thinking of buying a 2017 Raptor 355TS. I want to make sure my truck will handle the weight. From what I can tell it will but I want to verify with professionals! I have a 2011 ...

Nope......not enough truck capacity
Too heavy of a pin weight to begin with
Truck will be overweight on GVWR, RAWR ....close to max load rating (or over) rear tires
NOPE.....too heavy of a trailer
Open your trucks drivers door and read the 'tire data' info sticker on jamb
It will list max cargo carrying capacity.....not enough to even handle the 3400# dry pin let alone 'other' cargo (passengers/stuff/hitch)
Take truck to a CAT Scale and get it weighed 'camp ready' (you, fuel, passengers, stuff etc)
Add weight of hitch if not already in truck
How much weight is on rear axle..........how much more weight can it carry ?
That is what your 'wet' pin can weigh before being overweight
Figure 22% of a trailers GVWR for wet pin (20% - 25% normal range)
14K MAX GVWR Trailer would be more in line....roughly 3000# wet pin
