We should let this thread rest a bit until you get the truck weighed..
Full family and full tank of fuel and gear you may carry..
Your axle limits may be the limiting factor..
Get individual axle weights!!!!!!
Example.. My s 10 pulling my camper in the sig only leaves me 500 lbs left on the rear axle for stuff. I added a battery andput a canoe on my trucks pipe racks..
Basically I am maxed. I dont carry water.Just add food and clothes to camper..
With that said I travel alone in the truck and the wife and kids follow me in the car..
We dont go far. PA, NJ mostly.. 2 hours is the longest I drove away from home..I do state parks with no hook ups..
I go to one resort a year with a water park in the campground...
You dont need to go far to camp.. Its all the same really with different scenery...
