Thanks for the good feedback! And it looks like the brochure that was handed to me with the dry weight at 6345 lbs. IS completely wrong! Forest River's web site shows a 7263 lbs. dry weight. Why there is such a difference is beyond me (maybe a typo or, like someone said, this was an old brochure?). Regardless, I will make sure ALL the specs are accurate & doable before committing to any deal.
Since this TT is "The One" my wife loves, I will make it happen eventually, if not right away. I appreciate all who have voiced their concern over overloading my truck beyond it's safety limits. Since the new TT has a mid-kitchen layout, I'm confident we will be able to load it up without putting too much weight onto the hitch. And it is just the two of us travelling nowadays. As suggested, one of the premium hitches will be in our future. I know first hand how important towing stability is, especially on the major freeways!
Thanks to all who responded! I kind of knew most of your concerns already. But the feedback was very insightful and will help in our planning!
Few people on this forum know what a Windjammer is. This line of trailers was designed to be 1/2 ton towable in most models with a properly equipped 1/2 ton. If you like the trailer, go for it, your Titan will handle it. Will you be close to your limits? Sure, but many Super Dutys I see on the road are maxed out or over their limits with their Toy Haulers.
