2016 Ram short bed 6.7 diesel 2500 payload close to max

I have the above tow vehicle and am lookong to trade up to a Grand Design with a pin weight of 2100 out of 2400 of trucks rated payload. Is this enough of a margin for added personal effects in trailer ,or am I pushing the limit too close??

    There is a yellow sticker inside the drivers door, somewhere on the door jamb.... That will all you what the exact payload capacities..


    ** IF ** The Grand Design shows a DRY pin weight of 2100..... You will be overweight ... with only 300 # of padding, that is NOT enough to add the hitch weight and stuff in the camper

  • A dry pin weight of 2100? If so, you’ll be over your truck’s payload max when wet and loaded. Add a passenger or two....
