towing capacity

Ok, I have one salesman telling me that Pay Load of the truck only includes what you put in the truck like people, fire wood, 5th wheel hitch, etc. That does not include the hitch weight of the 5ver. Tow capacity tells you how much your truck can pull and has nothing to do with the weight in the...

Hey there. The family is interested in getting a TT. I think I really like the Jay Flight SLX 8 224BHW. I bought a 2001 F-150 a few years ago to help us tent camping because we were running out of space in our forester with the dog, kid, bikes, and other stuff. So... Need to know if our TV...

Hi everyone! Excited to join this group! I was wondering if anyone has this setup and if you have had any problems towing the 310 with this setup? We are getting the dual pane windows, generator, and washer/dryer unit which I know adds to the payload. We are wondering if the payload is too...

Ya'll must know Texans can increase their towing capacity anytime! Neighbor across the road sold a single wide and this provided the great entertainment for the week! Semi rear tire was slipping on wet grass and they did unhook at the top of the hill.

Hi, I am new to camping and am struggling with wrapping my head around what I can tow vs what I should tow. I have a family of 5 (2 adults and 3 kids). I have a 2016 Ford F150 ecoboost 3.5 with a 3.55 axle. The towing capacity of the truck is 11,500 per the owners manual. GVWR is...

Anyone using a tow vehicle that has less than a 4500 lb towing capacity for a 17B? I was consider the purchase of a BMW X1 (3700lb) or a Land Rover Discovery Sport (4400lb). Is this enough towing capacity?

I have a FR Sunseeker TS with Ford Diesel Engine -I cannot find towing capacity even though it has a factory hitch that says 6000 lb capacity. Any thoughts?

I am waiting for my cat to be serviced and looking at some new models. The 2019 Ascent with a 2.4 DOHC Turbo Boxer engine with Trailer Stability Assist can tow 5,000 pds. I just started don't see this thing pulling a trailer up a 8 % grade out west. Am I wrong ? And no I have not talked to...

Howdy from Alamogordo, New Mexico! I'm new to the site and I don't even own an RV yet, but I want one. I'm just trying to figure out what I want and need. I figured this site might help me with my decision. I've never really been 'RVing' per se. Way back in the day, my dad managed Big J...

I just saw a video about the 2020 Chevy HD trucks. The trucks look pretty nice but what I found the most interesting was Chevy is now putting a sticker inside the passenger side door with the payload number and the max towing number specific for that truck. It will be interesting to see how...

I often read on this Forum that my truck has X pounds of payload or Y pounds of towing capacity. While these ratings are a part of the equation they are not the whole enchilada. There are other things that need to be taken into account such as gross axle weight rating GAWR and gross combined...

A buddy sent me this picture. Not sure if he took it or what. Just thought I should share it for some entertainment.

Looking to upgrade to a 2019 FR 5th wheel. Dry weight is 8800lbs. Towing with a Toyo Tundra 1/2 ton, 10,500 towing capacity. Thoughts?

My wife and I purchased our first TT. It is a 26ft Sonoma. Dry weight of 6600 lbs. We are towing it with a 2018 Dodge Durango tows 7400lbs. After we got it home I was thinking that Durango looks awfully small. It pulls it no problem but I am unsure how safe it is since it is so big and my...

Looking at a Keystone Ultralite Our 2018 Toyota Sienna has 3500 lb towing capacity with tongue weight of 500 lbs. We were considering the 175BH which has a dryweight of 3100 - not giving us a lot of wiggle room for extras But the trailer dealer and Toyota said it should work - sure the...
