I have Camper option as well. If I use the posted capacity with camper and occupants I have 2800 lbs total. More than enough for what I will tow and lots of room with what I have now.
The truck is daily driver and actually I like the ride better than the King Ranch F 150 SCREW I traded.
We have an SUV besides the 2016 F250 6.7 and I prefer driving the truck. Therefore, it is my daily driver. I have a little less payload and I'm close. Not concerned but when the 2018s come out I'll get an F350. I'll always go diesel even if I would quit towing 5ers.
My 250 is not my forever truck. It has a 10 year expiry date when I travel more and will be retired. Of course life might change so we might be doing something else instead.

Although a diesel is just broke in I generally trade about every 2 years just before the 100,000 mile mark. Every bit of maintenance is done at the dealer and they generally have a couple buyers in mind. I'll be going on 70 at that time so it will probably be the last truck I buy. Who knows, maybe sell the 5er too and buy a Class A again.
When I weighed it the holding tanks were all but full, I had a lot of fire wood in the bed of the truck and the fiver was fully loaded with food, clothes, etc. I intentionally weighed it at this time because I felt it was as heavy as it would ever be. I do not expect to tow it that heavy again.

No worries even full. Good to know. I tow with everything including generator, full fresh water tank, food and drinks for 3 weeks, bikes and still no were near the max weight.

I bought the truck to tow our Rockwood 8289. Did a great job, but the 8289 was a lemon and had to go. The Wildcat is about the same size but about 3,500 #'s heavier.
