Just cause the build date says 2005 does not mean its a 2005, I think that is a 2006 Ford chassis because it says the 5 speed tow haul trans since that was not offered on the 2005 chassis, and if you have the 19.5 tires than its GVWR should be 20,500 lbs, I think the label by the drivers seat is incorrect and it appears you have one of the 1st 2006 chassis built since it was built in June 2005 and maybe the 1st hundred labels or so were incorrect.
My RV is a 2007 chassis with the 19.5 tires on a 32 foot 2008 Bounder and its GVWR is 20,500 lbs.
