You can pretty much bet the 6500 lb thing is understated. Bet it's closer to 7k because it's been 6500 since it began in the early 90's and with all the changes/nods there's got to be more weight than that. Either way let's put it this way, you're gonna be pretty much at the max rated tow capacity of an F-250 7.3L.

I have a 2000 32 sunsation with a triple axle performance trailer aprox. weight 9500-10k. I pulled it back from the east coast 1100 miles with a 5.4liter f150 between 70-80mph with no problem except for not being able to pass a gas station all was good....9mpg. The truck is rated at 7500pds pulling but it seems to be underestimated. The PA hills mountains did work it pretty hard.

Not trying to start a sh!t storm here - but is this a twin engine application? I'm assuming not, since 3900 lbs is really light for a single.
