Toy Hauler Towing weight
Just purchased a F250 Diesel, then I bought 42ft Road warrior, I'm thinking I can't haul it with that truck. Any thoughts

welcome to the forum Carl.
I would ask the mod or adm to move you over to our toy hauler forum where someone may have the same trailer and maybe the same truck. They will be able to tell you how to mod your 2500 truck to pull a 20000 lb trailer.....or maybe a much bigger truck will be needed.
Anywayz your 3/4 ton truck may have the same engine/tranny/front and rear axle as the bigger one ton DRW truck....however most 3/4 ton trucks are limited by a 6000-6500 RAWR which means around 2800-3200 lb payload in the bed.
A one ton DRW for example can have a 9375-9800 RAWR for 6000-6500 lb payload all depending truck configurations.
Looking at the Road Warrior web show these trailers are in the 20000 gvwr range which means wet pin weights in the 4k-5k lb range.
Your looking at a one ton DRW at the minimum.
