So you don't have the HDPP option. All you have is a Max Tow.
I'm guessing here, but it looks to me like you're probably over on the receiver rating and I never read where you mentioned whats in the truck.
P rated tires are not on the HDPP option. And your payload would be near 2300 lbs.
does you truck have the 5'.5" bed or 6'.5" bed.
I could be wrong but I thought the HDPP F150 came with LT tires.
I don't think you have enough truck for that heavy of a TT. The reason that it towed so much better with the lighter TT was because the TT was not as heavy as the truck.
You now have a long heavy TT behind a light weight truck with squirmy P rated tires and soft suspension.
TH have the axles farther towards the rear to accommodate for rear loading. Jayco specs the dry tongue weight at 1080 lbs. No propane, battery or anything else up front. Add 60lbs for propane, 100 batteries. You're at 1240 lbs with out anything else in the front.
Hard to tell how much the dirt bikes reduce the tongue weight since the axles aren't dead center in the equation.
