A 133" wheelbase truck should fit on a 16 foot trailer with no problem.

I think, if you read the whole post, he said his F150 weighs 4500. My 75 F250 4x4 weighs 5480 with 1 tank full and 1 tank 1/2 full. My 78 F250 weighs 5300 with both tanks full (Certified scale at the truck stop).

My '75 weighs in at 5200, but what I want to know is why trailer length is such a concern. It's either rated for the weight or not regardless of the length. I wouldn't hesitate to use the dolly.

Well....compressorguy, I think we are on the same page. I just said I agreed with his weight estimates. If he is going to TOW the truck, and not DRIVE it....... it most likely has empty tanks, donut tires, and maybe even missing a few parts. That's why I said 4500 is a good STARTING weight. However, 5000 is probably a better estimate. I was just saying that 6000 seems a little heavy....even with driver.
By the way, were your weights including driver?

I believe the OP's concern was whether on not it would FIT on his 16ft trailer.

Hello,
I am looking at trying to tow a 77 F350 crew dually and am trying to figure out how. Does anyone have the gross weight of this truck? I have a heavy duty tow dolly, but the max vehicle weight is 4750 according to the manufacture. Is this enough or what do you suggest. Thank you.
