I have a 2019 Ford F-250 6.7l diesel. I’m looking at a Grand Design 320MKS but want to make sure my truck can haul it. According to the brochure the trailer is 10,721 UVW. According to Fords towing guide the truck will tow 14,800 lbs. I’m thinking that if it will I may need to beef up the rear suspension. Also, I’m not sure how “UVW” relates to the actual weight I will be towing. Also looking for hitch recommendations.
Thanks for any help provided.

fill your truck with fuel and go across a scal and get your front and rear axel weights. on my trailer it advertised a pin weight of 2480 and I added in 200lbs for a hitch but the pin weight actualy came in at 2850 lbs so I had to trade in my older 3/4 tone and get a 1 tone. I just go by axel weight, so if your hooking up a 5th wheel pretty much the whole shot will be going on your rear axel so thats where you need the capacity.
Lol. Does your wife read this forum?
