Boy love how the the only talk about Payload and GVWR on the page about slide in Campers. The tout the BIG max tow ratings without reference to GVWR or payload!
No wonder we see so many 20K+ 5er TH hooked to F250’s.
Ford should be taken to task for misleading advertising, likely Ram and GM also.
Not disagreeing with you but at least Ford made the max payload package much more available this year, even included with the max tow option in some cases. That would increase the payload of my 2016 F150 by 800lbs. That would go a long ways towards making the ratings on my truck more acceptable.
A 20K 5th wheel probably has an F250 overloaded too.
