It's all good until it either breaks or he creams someone because he could not stop in time....

Nice camper though.

My first thought was, a salesman will sell a customer anything so long as they have the money to pay for it.

My first thought alway is, what will be the end of blown overloaded tire on narrow highway with heavy opposite traffic and 8 foot ditch on the shoulder?

So that's either a Mammoth or an Everest. 11.5' and 5.5k- 6k wet. Glad i'm off the road for a while.

been there did that last year but it wasn't overloaded, was a chunk of metal in the road I hit E-way off ramp to an adjoining E-way, 70 plus per, 2 feet from my sweating body changing a tire and the skeeters coming out of the ditch drawing blood the whole time. Drivers side steer. Was fun, not. Didn't jack the truck up much because the berm camber was pretty inclined toward that skeeter filled ditch.....:E

If you look closely at the picture, you'll notice that the truck is squatting a bit in the back. Bet the fridge isn't level....lol

How can you tell the tire is overloaded by a distant photograph?

IF you look closer you will see lego lynx blocks under Front wheels to level truck/camper

It all depends on how much else he was carrying. Vision wheels and tires can make his rear axle be the limiting factor since they can easily carry 4500 each. Flat towing a toad adds almost zero payload. Finally, we have no idea how it was optioned, so no way to guess an accurate weight. Since he has Vision 19.5s, my bet he knows the math.

It could be a 9.5 Rainier triple slide. I put a reasonable dry weight at 4200. Sure, it won't stop as fast as my F450 not that most DRWs can, but as fast or faster than most DRWs carrying 11.5 TCs. Because it is newer technology and a Ford.

When I had my SRW, I simply watched how much we carried. Way under the axle weight and under the tire limit with 19.5s.

Payload of 7,630 lbs. for the 2017 Ford Super Duty F-350. That's OEM factory. No add-ons. Bone Stock.
