Hey Bobby, I just wanted to comment again because I re-read my post from last night, typed late at night from my phone and while I was trying to be to-the-point, it may have come across a bit harsh.
Getting comfortable towing an RV takes time, and you are definitely not the minority who at some point thinks "do I have the wrong trailer or truck?"
I think your setup can work, and I think you are on the right path to fix it, but it will take a bit of investment although still MUCH cheaper than buying an F250 and putting gas in the **** thing.
In my opinion, I would focus on a few things:
- Front loading your trailer as much as you can. Heavy stuff like wood blocks and cases of water and whatnot go up front. Sleeping bags and blankets go in the back.
- Buy an Equalizer or Hensley. I think the Equalizer will do so much better for your confidence towing.
- A set of Bilstein 5100's and Michelin LTX load range E will make that truck pretty much ready for anything within it's capability.
If you do those three or four things and get the hitch dialed right, I think you'll be in business.
Towing is a subjective thing and everyone has their own comfort level. I see PLENTY of rigs matched way worse than yours screaming down the road at 80, that's just not how I choose to live my vacations.
Good luck and report back, you're making the right moves by asking for help here.
