Thanks for the advise. I will weigh the truck with a full tank of fuel. Sounds like I'll either stay with the lighter FW or trade for a 1 ton.
And don't forget all the other passengers and any/all stuff that would be carried in truck.
Our 5th wheel has a GVWR of 14, 375#
When we hook up the 'wet' pin weight is 2900#
Payload of any truck quickly decreases when you subtract true camp ready weight of truck from trucks GVWR....and figure rear axle weight vs RAWR.
