My 2005 Ford F250 (4wd, short bed, extended cab, diesel) was 7250 lbs wet with no occupants (4500 lb FAW and 2750 lb RAW). Adding my 2012 Arctic Fox 811, occupants, water and supplies, brought the GVW up to 11,500 lbs, RAW to 7000 lbs and unchanged FAW at 4500 lbs. .....
This doesn't add up. If you added occupants, the FAW would have increased. The camper should have a COG in front of the rear axle and adding the camper should also increase the FAW by at least a few hundred pounds.
Your numbers bring the camper and occupants to 4250#. I guess you traveled pretty light. Did you have any major accessories or upgrades: dual batteries, foam mattress, solar panels, generator?
