To all, I am truly grateful for ur great advice. To give u an idea of my personality, I am an engineer with an PhD In Mechanical engineering and so I am very conservative and cautious. I have thoroughly researched the payload capacities for my truck for 4 weeks now and my wife is becoming very frustrated and just wants to go buy it. With that said here is the ratings for my truck from the FORD towing guide.
GCWR = 14000
Tire payload = 1700
Max loaded trailer weight = 8600
We are not going fishing or huntng or across country. My thought was to tow the trailer dry (~7000) with no cargo in the truck other than myself and gas. My wife can pack everything in the car and drive the kids. The hitch weight is 700, me 235, and 160 in gas. We can pack the trailer with what we need when we get there.
However, I do like the delivery idea. What did that cost you if u don't mnd me asking.
