I have a 2004 Ford Expedition with the 5.4 and 3.73 rear end gears. I bought an RV without really researching what I needed and want to find out if I can get away with using my RV.
My tow rating is 8600 (I do have the heavy duty towing package) and the tounge weight max (with a weight distribution hitch) is 895. My RV gross is 7000 but the tounge weight is 1130.
So, with 235 pounds over the tounge weight limit, can I get away with using my RV? Has anyone done similar?
I absolutely love my Expedition and have no interest in trading in for a bigger truck, but I also love the size of my RV.
Any personal experiences or info would be great!
