What's the big concern with payload, a little over is not gonna hurt nothing I used to pull everything with a 95 f150 for years with no issue and that truck was not very heavyduty compared to the f150 today

Can't answer for him but when I pulled my popup home out of storage not long after I got my truck I averaged 15mpg (230 miles on the highway, 70 miles on a state road, in 4wd because it was snowing...in late April).

REMEMBER....This is a "Lets see your camper being towed thread", not a weight discussion thread. There are already enough of those in the towing section.

Keep the pictures coming!

Weight police are obnoxious. PM somebody if you're really trying to show concern for them and help out.

Let's see those campers!

That photo is deceiving, my front end passenger side was up on a slope. Rig was actually very level while traveling. TT weighs in at 5000 lbs dry. Couldn't have weighed in any more than 5500lbs. No troubles.
