Cool. That thing is HEAVY! :)
Guess with the all new frame, the heavier tranny and beefed up suspension, that made it heavier. But figure with a 14,000# GVW and truck weighing 9420# ready to tow, I've got a little over 4500# I can still load and haven't gone over the trucks GVWR rating....With RAWR of 9750# guess I could go with a 5,000# pin weight and it wouldn't be an issue, (my last pin weight check was 3300#), so with that, plus weight to tow, I'm at 12,270#. I still have 1730# to play with before I hit my GVWR.....yeah, it's kinda cool:)....hey, I feel good about it:B
Last time I weighed my camper, it was a "tad over 16,000#..can't find my paper, but like, 16,030# (?)...So (now speculating), with truck @ 9420 plus the 5er, at 16,100 (round off), that would put me at 25,525#.....11,500# under the trucks GCWR, (not bad for a 1 ton dually)..SO, if I want to look at a heavier 5er....believe I can now without much worry of going over the trucks GVWR, (if it were close, would do like others and go by RAWR..why not, though I could possibly lose my "weight police" badge":)),
Did I stay, "I love this truck":)
