Have any of you actually weighed your truck to see if the payload and GVWR meet at 12400?

I haven't gotten around to weighing it, mainly because the configuration of my truck and FW are well below payload capacities and it's not a concern. The new 2020 models have so much more capacity and towing than previous years, and my FW is small and fairly light even fully loaded. My pin weight is only 2,300 and fully loaded the FW comes in at 14k. I could handle a pin of 3,890 so plenty of room there and FW towing capacity for my model is 22k.

Yea, also chuckle at that, that 4,500# goes quickly!
We lost 1,411# from our 5,411# payload with us, in bed tool box and hitch, leaving 4,000# with a 2,800# pin.
So if 4,500# then about 3,100# for that 2,800# pin not much wiggle room. Our 5er is only 32’ about 13,000#, with a small basement.

What mileage does a 2017-2019 F350 SRW with stock gearing get towing a 36 foot 5er that weighs 15K at 65 MPH on flat roads, no wind ?

When I had a '15 F350 SB, 4x4, cc, 50 gallon Transferflow replacement tank, 3.55 gears towing a '06 5er weighing 12,800, I'd get 9.5 or so at 70 mph. Same truck towing coach in sig weighing in at 16,000, I dropped down to 9.0 mpg's at 70 as well. Now w/ my 17, DRW in sig I'm down to 8-8.5 @ 70 biggest diff is 4.10 gears, 2 extra tires and longer box. Same truck putzing at lower speeds sightseeing and all, will jump up to upper teens.

we have a 2020 F350 6.7l turbo diesel long bed 4wd SRW with the 10 speed. I can't say enough good things about this truck. The power is amazing. I'm getting 20-21 mpg not towing highway and a recent trip towing the FW in our signature I was getting 14 mpg. This truck makes towing easy, it knows just what to do. Previously our MH's would tire me out after a long ride, this truck/FW combo is like daily driving. It's night and day and so much easier. With the FW loaded the truck hardly squats to level and is really smooth going down the road. It's made to tow.

Wow, that is quite the improvement in fuel economy. I never saw much difference in mileage or capability going from my '16 to the '17. I'm either going to have to buy tires for mine or trade it in..... I think maybe it's about time for a new one.

I now have 3500 miles on my 2020 F-350/SRW/Long Bed/4X4/6.7/10 speed

I have a gvw of 12,400 and a payload of 4562#

I tow a 16,500# Fifth Wheel with a smile on my face! The combo of the improved 6.7 along with the 10 speed is NIGHT and DAY better than my old 2015 6.7.....

I am averaging right around 11 now with my trailer in tow, where I was at 8.5 to possibly 9.... Without hills, I am averaging 12 if I keep it under 65 on the flats.

** UPDATE **
Just took a 175 mile trip and averaged 11.5.. that included all the secondary streets and highway...
I had the cruise set at 64
