That's one big a$$ trailer and is really better suited to a 3/4 ton gasser. At 36'-8" OAL and probably around 92-9500lbs loaded IMO just a bit much even for an HD F150. It would be a load for my Ram 2500 CTD.


On the surface I agree. While the OP has a VERY CAPABLE TV things like upgrading the receiver to account for the high tongue wt. and just the overall size/wt of this particular trailer seems to be pushing it awfully close.
