You need to look again. Those are 2014 specifications. I don't believe your coach is a 2014? The specifications change all the time. I believe that you stated that you had 19.5 tires? That in itself limits capacity. You will note that on the 22,000 GVWR rated chassis for 2014, the standard tire size is a 22.5" tire. ALL of the pieces come together to develop a specification. Also, please look at the specifications at the link again, and you will see that your statement of "and the towing capacity is set by Fleetwood not Ford because Ford has no idea the weight of the RV box..." is completely incorrect. Also, where is the specification stated for maximum combined capacity off your Federal label?
Just trying to educate you on how ratings are set and NOTHING you do can increase GVWR. Sorry... those are just the facts.
Safe travels.
That 36000 psi is for my year, Ford did this starting in 2006 and after that, you have shown you just don't know, and 19.5 tires are not under rated for my RV, its curb weight is only 17,500 lbs as to FACTORY FLEETWOOD, and all 6 tires max weight load adds up to 27000 lbs, so show me where I am over 27000 lbs in my pics..

Just for info, you can't prove him wrong, at least not in his mind. And if you do prove him wrong, he'll just claim he was right all along and he'll start sending you private messages. We did this on the Arizona fuel issue when he kept repeating over and over and over that the fuel tax clearly applied to motorhomes and everybody who thought different was going to go to prison. When we finally cleared it up and learned it didn't apply to motorhomes, he tried to claim he was right all along. It's just what he does.
