F350 Supercab 7.3L Diesel Dually TV - Can it Pull it?

[kjmedwards]

Hi,

I recently purchased a 2002 F350 Supercab 7.3L Diesel Dually 4X4. It has 60K miles and in great shape. This truck has a GVWR of 11,500, Rear GAWR of 8,350 and Front of 5,200.

We are looking at a Heartland Road Warrior fifth wheel, toy hauler. It has a GVWR of 18,000 and a dry weight of 14,090. The hitch weight of the RV is 3,200.

I am new to the fifth wheel world and am trying to determine if my truck can handle this trailer? I wanted to see if folks had some insights that could help us make the right decision. If you need more information, please let me know.

Thanks again for any advice you might have.

The GVWR for the truck is 11,500.

It will have a GVWR of 9900lbs and weigh about 8000lbs. giving you 1900lbs of payload. You'd be at least 1300lbs over weight from what I know.
