5th Wheels and F150's
I have a 2011 ecoboost with the 7700 GVWR with payload of 1825lbs and a rear axle rating of 4050lbs. Max tow package with 3:73 ratio. I'm looking at a 2015 Puma 253 FBS 5th wheel that is 27 feet long ...

The pin and hitch will put you over a bit but not huge.
GVWR is just 9,163. Doable but you won't get any recommendations.
There are others to look at such as these Cougar Half-Ton series with dry pin weights under 630.

Yeah....OP stated trailer had a GVWR of 11,000#
When in fact the GVWR is the 9163# you stated.
BUT OP only has roughly 1000# of available payload after hitch install and camp ready. Dry pin is 1027# so yes OPs truck will be overloaded.
Probably around 800# when trailer is outfitted camp ready
Question is will the tires be overloaded/how much?
