Your truck likely has the 10k GVW package. This is a sticker weight derating meant for those that use the vehicle for business use.10k is the defining line for the definition of commercial vehicle.

I am new to the forum and this is my first post but have reviewed the advice here on setting the vehicle up for towing. I have a 2019 Ford F-250 6.7L Diesel and 2018 Cruiser Shadow. Following the advice here I measured the height to the wheel well fenders front and back on the truck and hitch height. They are all within 1" before and after hooking the trailer up. My question is on the weights. I took the unit to the local scale and here are the results:
Front axle: 4460 Lbs, GAWR: 5990 Lbs.
Rear axle: 4280 Lbs. GAWR: 6340 Lbs.
Trailer axle: 5600 Lbs.
Gross weight: 14,340 Lbs. GVWR: 10,000 Lbs.
My questions are, should the front axle weigh more than the rear axle and how does the 10,000 lb. GVWR fit this equation when the truck weighs more than that with no trailer?
Thanks for any responses.

Front axle has the higher weight rating and is carrying the weight of the diesel.
