door pressure states max 60 front and 65 rear.
Seems the dealer and others, want to say bump it up to in the mid to high 70s while towing.
I am having a hard time coming to grips with that. Pretty sure if that were true...
Ok, fair enough.
3K payload
14,700 towing
22 2500 gasser 8' box
RV is 39', 10,200 empty
Pin weight is 1900 (and it is)
GVWR is 13,990
Actual weight in pic is about 10,350
My gross according to Cat Scales, is 17,860. I still have about 1700 to 2K lbs of **** to load up....maybe
B&W...
I took the pic and it looked level.... LOL, that is until I transferred the pic to my PC.... Then it looks nose high.
The bottle does not lie like an iPhone....
I just realized I have an egg shaped front tire/wheel and the rear is actually round....... F'N iPhones.....
jeebus......
you may be correct sir.
This is a measuring device. It is 7" tall. This is unhooked stance.
There is 10" from top of tire to bottom of wheel well. Just went out and measured it.
this is hitched up and ready to roll.
so, I am only sagging about 2.5"
Finally got everything setup and hooked up for towing my 5th wheel.
Seems I have about 5 inches of sag when hooked up. I am pretty much empty and expect another 1200-1500 lbs in the RV.
Pulled the rig to a temp storage lot while I get everything setup. Pulled pretty well and felt Ok while...
Good info
I am due to install my hitch on Monday.
My pin height on the RV is 49"
My bed of the truck is 39"....
Looks like I will be doing a pin box adj.
I am 7200 gross on my truck. I figure 7500 MAX with the hitch in the bed.
My estimated pin weight it going to be around 2100.
RV is about 10,550 + at best, 1500 lbs more.
I dont think I have 2 tons of **** to go in it, even though it is rated for that much cargo.
I am going to be close to...
yup Blackvue.... LOL auto correct got me
I have had 2 from work for the last 6 or so years and one took a dump on me.

I highly recommend Blackvue
Oh, and if you are curious.....
I got this truck for the sole purpose of turning a toy hauler RV into a work from home office.
Turning the garage into a..... not sure what you would call it, but there will be 7-8 monitors, 3 computers, a test/gun/work/ bench.
I may even put in a 9mm...
Not true, weight alone does not determine private or commercial.
Weight just determines a Class of license.
Up until about 5 or 6 years ago (I think) in Texas, I could haul a combo (toter home and 50' race trailer) with nothing more than a Class C.
That thing grossed out at about 85K to 90K...
