I tow a 351 Raptor with my 2020 F350 Platinum Tremor. #1 4.30 gears/7.3L #2 Air bags #3 3" lift on Camper (Tremor comes w/lift) Combined weight over 25K NO Complaints!
CAN I PULL A 5TH WHEEL LUXURY TOY HAULER SAFELY WITH MY TREMOR. CAN I ALSO ADD MY CARLI PINTOP 2.5 KIT

If I go DRW, I’m going Freightliner. ?
How about quad rear wheel. Lol
@Iron Man have you decided on a 5th wheel option? So many not sure how you pick but look as many as possible. RV shows help!!! Good luck and God bless. ????

We are now pretty certain that we will not go 5th wheel. I watched a Utube video of a DOT stop. It was staged for the video but it showed what highway patrol does on a safety inspection. I’m not going to risk having my 5er impounded. We now have narrowed it down to the Grand Design Momentum 31G or the 29G.
We looked up RV shows and we plan to hit one in August in the tri state area where we live, and maybe another in January in Florida.
I’m glad to have researched so much. I’m also so glad for the great advice of all the great dudes sharing their wisdom.

Also another thing I never mentioned. If your Gross Combined vehicle weight rating is over 26k, you’re legally suppose to have an RV endorsement on your license
Small nitpick on that for others who may be reading the thread and aren't in NY: only for states that have RV endorsements. As far as I know WA doesn't have that, for example.

The Grand Design Momentum both look great!!! Good luck finding the one…??
I’m a little over capacity
ton my 2008 2500 DMax. Don’t notice the camper back there. Pulled it 3 hours home on interstate and winding roads. I usually only pull short trips locally to the lake. 60 miles or so, for weekends. Hoping my Tremor 350 comes in by March 2022. Wanting to do a carli setup with air bags but not sure about the height for still being able to tow my camper.
Yep. I had to back out of purchasing a Grand Design bumper pull. The spec weight was fine for my Suburban but the actual weight as equipped was way over. Fortunately I had an honest dealer who weighed it and flagged the issue for me.

Iron Man whats up dude! 
It is pretty simple: Generally speaking the number you will exceed first is Cargo Capacity.
your trucks curb weight plus your cargo capacity = the most your truck can weigh legally
Your Cargo capacity includes the hitch weight of your trailer.
if you weigh your truck ready to camp with all your passengers and add your expected loaded trailer hitch weight....that number cannot exceed your GVWR.
My F250 weighed 8600 LBS full of fuel passengers dog and gear....... GVWR 10800 -8600 = 2200 lbs That is how much I had left for hitch weight. Your hitch weight on a TT is roughly 15% of your TT Weight. on a 5er its 20%. That is fully loaded weight not empty weight!
Thats why if you plan to tow get the 350!
good luck my man!

How does this tow? How much of a drop do you need on your hitch?
I just signed the paperwork on a 284BHOK today. Dealer is gonna let me keep it on their lot until Ford finally coughs up my truck. (Was supposed to already be built).
What truck setup do you have to get 3800lb payload?!
Gas 350. Can tell by the 11,300# GVWR.
F350, 7.3, 5th wheel prep, tailgate step, 3rd brake light camera and lariat value package, carpet delete and navigation
