I just purchased a new truck yesterday. 2014 F350 6.7, 4x2 longbed, 3:31 gears. So I would like some assistance with weights so that I'm armed with knowledge as we go shopping! What 5th TH/BH weights should I look for?
GVWR: 11500
5th towing cap: 16300
Payload: 4220
CCC: 3637
FGAWR: 5250
RGAWR: 6730
GCWR: 23500
My calculations
You need to ignore the 4220 payload. That is what is in the brochure for an XL truck, no options, with the 6.2 gas. You have a lariat with a diesel. The weight of the diesel and the lariat options are deducted off the 4220, resulting in a net payload for cargo, people and 5th/trailer pin weight of 3637lbs.
Your attached calculator pretty well tells you what you need to look for.
