Towing capacity
Buying my first travel trailer and have a question. My truck is rated at 12500 towing capacity and the toy hauler I am looking at is 9900 dry weight. Am I going to heavy?

^^Yes OP, post back with a bit more info.
If you have a 1/2 ton truck, that is capable of pulling a flat bed trailer loaded to 12.5K, it likely won't work for a toy hauler TT weighing close to that amount.
Now if it is a HD truck, that can carry the load, that may work for you. A HD gasser is often limited to a similar 12.5K tow capacity due to driveline limitations, or even receiver hitch limits.
