Not sure on that one. There was a thread about that a while back though. I'll do a little digging to see if I can find it.

ON EDIT: It was actually your thread:https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...e-trailer.html

I tow one for a local construction company which is 8x32 and I would guess it weighs around 6,000 lbs. My camper weighs in at 7200lbs and the office trailer feels lighter. I have a '08 F350 CC V10 and use a weight distribution hitch and pulls it with hardly any effort.

I wish I could answer that one for you but I honestly have no idea what one of those things weighs.

ON EDIT: It looks like dualwheels66 answered it for you.
