I suspect you're right and I also suspect that it is incorrect, or at very least less than ideal for the OP's weights.
But since the OP hasn't even considered providing us with what he thinks the load is or what tires are on it, not brand, but size, it is speculation.
Although given I'm fairly certain on the approx tire rating he has and the load of the camper, it is not speculation that 65/80 is not ideal...
Yes, the miles are low because I don't drive a great distance to work and when COVID hit, I've been working remotely from mid-March 2020.
This is the first set of new tires on either of my trucks that I put on as my 2004 6.0l diesel engine caused me to trade the truck at about 60,000. I would appreciate any guidance that you can provide on the best truck tire pressures as well as any guidance for the trailer's as well.
Here is the information and these are estimates as I have not had the truck and trailer weighed.
Truck 2012 F-250 4x4 Regular Cab 6.2L Cooper Discoverer HT3 LT275/65R18
Fuel Tank: 28 gallons
Driver: 225 lbs
Other Cargo: 300 lbs
Trailer 2012 Crossroads Cruiser CT29RLX Goodyear Endurance ST225/75R15
Dry Weight: 7041 lbs from Trailer
Hitch Weight: 856 "
Axle Weight: 6185 "
Cargo: 500 Estimated
Total Trailer: 7541 "
I do use weight distribution bars and followed Ford's guidance in the owners manual as approximately halfway between the no trailer/trailer attached heights of the front wheel opening.
Let me know if you need any other information to provide recommended pressures, I would appreciate the help.
