I'm looking to purchase a used TT soon.

An online search into Specs, Price, and GVWR has led me to strongly consider a Keystone Bullet 294bhs. A 5600lb UVW + 1200lb of Cargo should keep the Tongue Weight within Ford Specs. Or is my Math way off?

04 EB 5.4 Ls Max Tow = 5300lb Family of 5 + Fuel = 853lb

I have a lot of towing experience thru work; HVAC Mechanic, 10ft Utility to 25ft Tandem Cage to 32ft Triple Cargo

Secondary Question; I've used Reese WD Hitches, but Ilike the Concept of the new Andersen WD Hitch. Anyone here have experience with it?

Thanks Y'all

Should be fine on the trailer. As far as the WD hitch, I only use EZ Lift. Simple, straight forward, and reliable.
Just remember that a proper set up will have the bars parallel with the trailer tongue. Don't be one of "those guys" that have the bars at a steep angle to the tongue. ;)
