I do and I don't trust the door sticker. On my f150 the sticker said 1896 but when I weighed it with me and full of gas it was only 1450. But yet on my F350 it went from 5850 to 5660. Just be aware.

You can try that as part of the deal for sure. And as I mentioned earlier, there are a few RVs coming out with the new Endurance from the factory. I believe Jayco, Airstream, and possibly Grand Design to name a few. If you plan to hit Florida during the summer, it will be hot and the A/C will have to run constantly to even try to keep up. I would request a shaded site if available when you reserve. Or, if possible with the kids school schedules, plan an Orlando run in the spring, fall, or even over the Christmas/New Years break. Going to southern, sunny Florida in the summer can be miserable. You'll quickly notice as you travel south, dozens of RVs passing you going north. They are the ones who have had enough, lol. We don't even go to our NC beaches during the summer because of the sweltering heat and crowds.
