Where are you at payload wise? I was looking at another post and it made me wonder if I exceed mine. My tt is 5804 dry and ~7500 loaded. From what I understand its 15% of trailer weight loaded plus hitch weight, plus anything in the truck so in my case .15 of 7500 is 1125, then my big ass is 300, kids are another 100 then 150 for the wife puts me at 1675. Then put bikes ~100 and a grill~ 100 means I'm at 1875 at best. Granted my truck pulled this set up thru the mountains no issues but it's only rated at like 1430 payload. Just wondering if there ever was a issue if I would get no coverage in a accident. Food for thought.

Very similar to my sons 2018 Grand Design Imagine 2670MK. I think it is 6500 or 6600 dry. I towed it with my 2013 1500 no problem. I had the 3.55's and it did rev pretty good on hills though. I think my payload was about 1350ish. I figure the trailer was probably about 7500 when I towed it so maybe 1000 tongue weight. I was by myself in the truck and no other gear. I'm about 270 but I think I read they factor in 150lb driver when calculating payload so I was really close but probably ok. Truck towed it great. We both have 2018 2500's now so no issues there anymore
