I have a Grand Design Solitude, and in order to take it off the lot, they had Tampa Spring put a 1000# extra leaf on the F250 SRW Crew Cab Lariat truck and re-certify it to 11000, and they also re-certified the Pin weight as well.
The 5'er weighted in at 14140, pin weigh of 3120, and total GVWR 11, 020 #. The total gross weigh of both was 22,100#
I added air bags to help keep the porpoising to a minimum.
I also put all terrain tires on it to get the extra weight rating of the tires (3680 each).
Just finished a 11,000 mile trip out west, and had no problems.
