Weight total for trailer and hitch on F150
Hi, I have been pulling my hair out for a week trying to make sure I have the correct weight I can haul and the total hitch weight and hitch payload weight. Could someone please verify these number...

Exactly...probably ran away never to return lol. Funny I can sit here at a state park on a Friday and watch the rigs roll in and the vast majority are being pulled with 1/2 ton trucks. Not 16' trailers either but plenty of 30' or longer. Packages? It evidently works here in the central PA mountians but not at RVnet or other RV forums. Many years of coming here and have yet to see one piled up along the road going down or on the shoulder with a blown motor or tranny, or broken axle. Strange indeed.
Trying to get realistic and unbias information about what truck and trailer weight I could tow from this group was a lost cause.
These guys are smart and have tons of useful knowledge about RVing, etc, but this is the last place I would turn to about what size and weight trailer I could handle.
I found out the properly spec'ed 1/2 ton can handle a lot more than these guys give it credit for.
