We were pulling a TT very similar in weight to yours before trading up to the 333MKS and you will notice a big difference in how it pulls. The F250 and 6.7 are having no trouble pulling the weight and the stability of the 5th wheel is much better, as is the ride.
One thing I caution you on with the 2500 is tires, When I was ready to pull the trigger on this trailer I took a look at .the stock tires which were 245/75R 17's and the load range E were limited to 3195 per tire, I wanted a little more margin there so I swapped out the tires and rims for some 275/70R 18's with a load range of 3640.
We haven't finished moving stuff around in the trailer yet, there is just so much more storage in the 333MKS over our Passport 2890RL that we can't figure out where to put stuff so it's most convenient. But once we have it figured out I plan on running across a set of scales and get a pin weight.. Since the fresh water tank is at the very rear of the trailer that will have a huge effect on the pin weight between full or empty. But I'm expecting around 2100-2400 if the FW is empty.
