Thank you everybody for your help!

Just one last question before I go (if anyone is still visiting this forum): Does that mean that MOST of the F250's I see rolling down the road with huge campers with multiple pop outs, towing a boat, have done crazy modifications to their truck to allow for this weight and are nevertheless VERY overloaded/dangerous? Thanks again guys!
