Thanks all, I suspected some of those numbers were for a gasser. The table in the back stops there and doesn't seem to have the diesel. I've search the Internet best I could and can not find these in print anywhere. Strange. If that is the case then I'm slightly over on the front but good everywhere else.
The only thing the truck has in it is 4 passengers, a full fuel tank, the 5th wheel hitch, bed tool box half full, and a monster grill guard that was there when I got it. It probably weighs 400 lbs but unsure.
About half the 5thers I see have a significantly larger camper. Oh well, looks like I'm just at the limit which according to theory should give me some margin.
The 3000 pin weight is stated at the bottom of the small table that had the truck I used in the post.
The trany can get hot when towing on a 95 degree day. Stays at 205 but can easily go to 218 if I push too hard, goes to 199 after the fan starts to blow and I let off of it. Thinking about an additional cooler for some insurance. We do have hills around here, and it's hot.
