Shows 9,200 lbs max weight but need to know first hand experience. Thanks.
Is that 8K wet or dry? If it's wet you'll probably be ok with proper WDH setup provided you have the payload. If it's dry forget about it. My camper's GVWR is around 7,800, but it's ~7K loaded. If your camper is rated 8,000 GVWR, you may come in well under that loaded. Also, some campers naturally place more weight on the tongue, so you'll have to check the manufacturer spec for tongue weight, as well as a scale. Mine is a 33' ft ultralight, so it has some flimsier materials to keep the weight down. It pulls fine since I got the WDH dialed in. When it's windy I just reduce speed from 65 to 55 - 60 mph and it doesn't move so much. My vehicle is an EL, which is the previous generation equivalent of the Max.
Looks like the dry weight is 6303. You should be fine as long as the WDH gets dialed in right.Looks like I've been thrown in the deep end of the pool..sink or swim! Going pick up the camper next Wednesday. Talked to the salesman twice and gave him the specs on the Expedition and my concerns about towing that size trailer. Much to my amazement he said we should be OK. I'll roll the dice and see what it will do heading back home from the Lafayette area on US 90 one of the roughest roads in the world!
Safe travels! I suggest watching some videos on WDH setup. Don't trust the dealership. They'll put you on the road in any setup.Looks like I've been thrown in the deep end of the pool..sink or swim!
