Towing capacities aren't realistic, completely unachievable

New to this forum, but looking for advice. My truck is a 2014 F350 SRW. Stated fifth wheel capacity is 15,900. I'm looking to buy a 39 foot 5er that weighs in at 14,400 with a pin weight of 2900. ...

As to the fifth wheel weights before moving to a dually, it is more about the actual pin wt. Some 16K FWs, depending on how loaded, slide arrangement, axle location, could have less pin wt than a 15K FW. As long as you are within your RAWR/tire/wheel rating, with a SRW, you should be OK..."hook it up and go".

Agreed!
