Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Ford F350 and F450 Gross Vehicle Weights
Permalink  

Good day, All.

In an effort to help Dan (NorCalDan) get information as to how big of a truck he needs to pull a camper (and to help others as well), I am asking the following question:

For those of you with Ford F350's and F450's, could you give us an idea of what your particular truck weighs when fully loaded?  We are interested in ACTUAL GVWR ratings.

Since one does not want to put too much trust in information in brochures (and especially from salesmen), your answers would be greatly appreciated.

It is not necessary that we know the passenger weights because everyone interested can simply add in their own weights.  However, if you have tools or other items in your truck, an approximate weight for the extra items would be helpful.

Dan has posted questions in a topic entitled "How Much Truck Would I Need".

Thanks to all.

Terry
