AF990 on F350 CC SRW
OK, so I've spent gobs of time reading about weights and trucks and what to do and what not to do. I've noticed many DRW owners have 9 foot campers and many have 11-12 footers, I've witnessed a Dodge...

2016 Ram 3500 SRW Laramie.
Truck weight full of fuel:
Steer axle 5100
Drive axle 3200
With Bigfoot full of water and nothing else:
Steer axle 5500
Drive axle 6680
Loaded heavy for 2 weeks, heavy clothes, full of water:
Steer axle 5540
Drive axle 7120
Oh ****. RAWR is 7,000 and payload is 4018.
I drained water down to 1/3 tank and rescaled.
Steer axle 5520
Drive axle 7,000
I'm still over payload by 102# and GVWR by 220#.
It drives good. I added a Bigwig and really couldn't tell a lot of difference.
More attention needed regarding what I pack.
Edit add...rubber bed mat and 5/8" plywood under the mat.
