I already bought the TV (a deal I couldn't turn down)
2013 Ford F350 6.7L Diesel, LB, SRW, 4x4, factory 5th wheel prep. 3.55 axle, King Ranch trim
GVWR=11,300 lb FGAWR=5900 RGAWR=6370 Payload 2973
Candidate Cougar 315RLS
DOES ANYONE HAVE REAL MEASURED WEIGHTS? (using weights from 7Iron below (thanks!))
Dry weight=10,740 Pin Weight=2120
Going through the numbers, it looks like I'm cutting it close (estimating 1500 lbs o' stuff for full timing).
Opinions / thoughts? Would especially like to hear from folks with the same rig(s).
Thanks !

I have the 330RBK wich is advertised as 1100 lbs heavier GVWR and about the same pin weight. count on your pin weight being about 500lbs heaver than lister. having said that I tow mine with 2014 F350 with the 11500 payload option and with the family loaded up I still have about 1000lbs of payload left over. truck pulls it very nice. take your truck across the scales empty with you and a full tank of gas to see what your real weight is, you might have more or less payload. but I think you'll be fine as it is your rear axel and front axel weights that determine your real payload.
