I guess I'm still confused. All the dealers say I'll be fine and the towing manual say Maximum Loaded Trailer Weight (Lbs.) – Automatic Transmission is 12,800 pounds for a f250/350 with 4x4. ?https://www.fleet.ford.com/resources/ford/general/pdf/towingguides/2002_All.pdf
Yes they will,
You likely will be if the F250 has a camper Package, BUT you will likely be over your trucks GVWR. The issue with a 5er is not what it weighs, but how much weight the 5er add in the bed of your truck (Pin weight), That Jayco Eagle has 2,400# of Pin weight DRY, before you put a single pot or pan in it.
It may tow fine and handle the weight fine, but you will likely be over your trucks GVWR, maybe a lot.
The next limits to really watch are axle and tire ratings. While I do tow over my GVWR, I am well within the axle and tire ratings.
It is your choice as to what to do, smaller 5er, bigger TV, or go with what you got.
