Newbie Looking for a New 5ver
I have a 2013 F-250 supercrew 4x4 SRW, GVWR-10,000#. Put it on the scales, weighs 8,280#, that's with full tank of diesel, 2 adults, 2 kids, and 3 overnight bags. Looking for a new 5th wheel, budget...

You can also use the RAWR. Some do some don't. My Ram comes with a tire limited 6000lb GRAWR. A 2176lb CCC rating. With the 17-1800lb pin in the bed my RAW is 4900lbs and that's with 50+gals of combined black/grey tanks in front of the 5'er axles. Still 1100lbs under the GRAWR. My GVW is only 9600lbs. FAW is 4900lbs also for a combined 9800lbs. 200lbs over the trucks GVW. Not concerned in the least. Ram 2500 is the same as a 3500 for 2012. Only diff is rear springs. Problem with 3/4 tons is once you option them out you really drop the GVW. Unfortunately you are limited to the size of the 5'er using the GVW. But from observing what's being pulled in CG's the last few years, not many 3/4 ton owners are overly concerned as I see lots of them with far bigger 5'ers than we own.
