Okay, so here is an odd question that has be a bit perplexed. Looking at a new F250, and looking at the chart for ll the tow ratings, and this stands out to me. There are several cases where the 'conventional towing' weight rating is higher than the '5th wheel/gooseneck' rating?
I was under the impression that 5th wheel towing always allowed for a larger/heavier trailer as the tongue weight was placed on, or even forward of the axle, rather than several feet behind it (Distance = Leverage).
Anyone know what would cause this?
