The scenerio:
New 2010 F350 4x4(Crew cab)
6.6 diesel turbo
4:10 gears
Max tow rating(fifth wheel): 17,700#
Front axle: 6,000#
Rear axle: 7,050#
GVR: 6,050#+7,050# = 12,050# Which is an F-plate
GCWR: 12,050+17,700(47 fountain with boat half full of fuel)=29,7050# wich is over the GCWR of the truck, which means you will have to move up to a F450 which has a GCWR of 33,000#'s with a 4:30 gear.
Either way I slice it, I need a CDL and and F-plate!
