My 03 Suburban 5.3 was 300 pounds shy of GCWR loaded with a 7300lb tow cap. I just found the F150 EB w/3.31 gears is rated at 9200, the 5.0 with 3.55 is only 7700. The Dodge Rams here don't have the 3.92 gears, so they're rated at 8600 pounds with 6800 GVWR. My Suburban made it up the NC, VA, and TN mountains and we never had an issue. I fully expect a brand new 1500 will more than handle my TT. I also use the Equalizer WD/sway hitch. Definitely NOT buying a different trailer anytime in the near future. We've had our trailer for sale at a local dealer for over a month with nothing but one lowball offer.
With me trading my car, I have to buy something new and under warranty.
