I'll second that. We're now pulling what's in our sig and it's significantly more comfortable towing than when our rig was a 2001 F250 PSD and a 6,000 lb travel trailer. A goose neck set up will probably tow better than our TT would, anyway.

Cobrar05, despite the numbers, it'll depend on what you're comfortable with. Personally, I wouldn't have pulled the trailer and weight you're looking at on our F250. As an alternative, have you considered a F350 SRW. Weights are probably tight, too, but I'd look into it.
