Hello,
I cannot speak for the Jayco, but I have a "16" Redwood 38RL.. I tow it with a "15" F-350 SRW, 6.7 and After a trip to the scales, I am AT my max weights... The truck and trailer tow great, but when it is time to renew my truck, It will be replaced with a DRW, just so I have a margin.. We are weekend Warriors, and have more cabinets inside that are empty then full.
The trailer as delivered empty was 14,100#.. my numbers from the scales were 12,680# on the axles, 3,260# on the pin for a total trailer weight of 15,940#, it carries a 16,500 GVW . . If I were towing more miles, I would beef up to a DRW, but for the usual 150 mile weekend trips you would be fine with the newer generation SRW at those weights. My tires are rated at 3,750# ea
The 3991RD is 1 nice looking fiver ! Good Luck with your decision
