Towing a 13,500 dry weight 5er?
The salesman told me that we could use an F250 and that we did not need a dually to tow this trailer. I would think that we would need an F350 dually?

I did say that it would probably be about 2,000 after we loaded up, and he said, "You don't load your tanks before you leave the house! You load up the water right before you reach your campsite (if boondocking), and you don't leave the house with full grey and back tanks!"
However, if boondocking, on the way back, I might have some of these tanks full?
I guess if we are at a campsite, we would have free water, so we don't need to load the water tanks...and we can empty the grey and black before leaving the campsite. But, we might need some water during travel for washing up, etc...
We always travel with some fresh water. We like to use the sinks, toilet and even the shower when needed. And that water then goes into the waste tanks.
We have in our trailer just about every thing we have at home. Plus the chairs and propane stove. Our entire load is about 1500# for just a weekend, a week or 2 is not a lot more. Most of that weight never leaves the trailer. It’s just easier to stock the trailer with its own stuff than carry it in and out of the house.
