What's the comfortable weight limit
I have a 2013 Ram 2500 with 6.7 Cummins Diesel. The GVWR is 10,000 lbs. Payload is 2580 lbs. The GCWR is 25,000 lbs/ Max trailer weight is rated at 17,410 lbs. I am currently pulling a 35' fifth wheel...

I am considering a bigger 5th wheel with UVW of 13,000 lbs. and GVWR of 15,500. Don't want to buy a bigger trailer and not be comfortable towing it with my Ram. We've only owned the fifth wheel for about a year. We mainly do extended weekends and an occasional 1 week trip. We will likely only camp in full hookup campgrounds so will unlikely approach the GVWR of our trailer.
:h It's certainly is a heavier one, that's for sure. I don't understand the "Bigger is better mentality". DW & I actually went the opposite direction. We downsized and actually have more room in our new 29' 5er than we did in our old 31' TT. Bigger & heavier is not always the way to go to be happy. Guess it's a "status" symbol. "Hey look @ me & my massive rig"
