What is the risk of exceeding payload?
Depending on what vehicle we buy, our Airstream will be a 27' twin, or 30' bunk. If we buy the Ford F-250 diesel, will get 30'. But if we are able to safely tow the 27' twin with Tundra, we are going ...

Thanks for the insights. I appreciate it. We spent the day at a few large volume Chevy and Ford dealers in Charlotte, about 1.5 hours up the road.
We are going to buy a silver F-350 or Chevy 3500 HD single rear wheel 4x4. Skipped over 3/4 ton for tire clearance as I'm putting 35x12.5x18 on 18x10" wheels with Cooper ST MAXX tires on. Will special order truck so we can get lots of add ons the typical white work trucks don't have. Among them a 4.30 rear end as we are getting gasser.
Life's too short to be stressed out on vacation. By going entry level trim, we can special order and get a very nice truck with lots of add ons for about $36-38k. Custom wheels/tires add about $3k. Getting long bed rather than planned short bed and will skip the topper so we can carry whitewater rafts, kayaks, mountain bikes, generator, etc.. with us. And we won't have our German shepherd in bed as originally planned.
Will buy four custom leather bucket seats for front and back as leather is the only option we want that isn't availble on the entry level trims. This will also include a 2015 center console up front. Dog will have his perfect space in rear floorboard between the kids captains chairs. Problem solved for about $45k.
Where can I buy the sexy lady rear mud flaps:)
