Well, Here is what I did. Just to show you what the truck you are looking at MAY be able to do.

I have a 2002 F350 Crewcab 7.3L PSD. I unwittingly loaded it up with a lot of dirt. When going over the scales at the landfill the truck registered at 16,200 pounds. Empty this truck weighs 8,100 pounds. The recommended payload is only about 4,000 pounds.

The truck was a bit squirrelly but she handled it. Breaking was really good as well.

I also tow a 33 foot tow trailer that is around 8,000 pounds. While towing this trailer I really have to admit that I hardly notice the trailer behind.
