By reading your post
Oh, OK. So, if the truck is rated for 1200 pounds payload and there is 1200 pounds of payload on the truck, that’s bad. Even though payload at max, was under both axle ratings by 200 to 300 pounds. 1200 pounds under max tow. No guesswork. All numbers by CAT scale. Had to do several emergency maneuvers over the years. Nothing bad occurred except for a few choice words and increased heart rate. Never had a sway issue in around 30,000 miles or any feeling of loss of control. Even in snow crossing over into Nevada from Oregon. Accident and ticket free for the last 47 years.
Yep, I’m feelin’ perty lucky. Should go get a lottery ticket I reckon.
To the OP: if all your numbers are good and the drive is comfortable, better go get an F-350 anyway. Just kidding. Only you can tell how your rig drives, not some anonymous keyboard jockey.
