In my opinion the gcwr is of very limited value. I think there is some merit in staying under your gvwr. If your f250 has a gvwr of 10000 lbs and the empty truck weighs 8200 you could potentially accept a trailer with a pin weight of 1800 lbs. Which is likely about a 9000 lb fifth wheel.
So even if your gcwr is 25000 lbs you'd never haul a 16000 lb 5th wheel without overloading your GVWR. You could, however, pull a heavier tag trailer.
