Towing Issues: towing capacities, ford f350, fith wheel

Question
I have a ford F350 xlt 4x4 with the 7.3 liter diesel I am wondering about how much wieght it will tow, when pulling a fith wheel trailer because I have a 32.5 ft trailer that wieghs 13,200 dry wieght and when I pulled it it was really doggin it going up small hills on the high way I thought it would do it. can you give me some insight as to how much I can pull with this truck?  

Answer
I would expect the truck to slow when going uphill pulling an extra 13k.  

Doggin it is a relative term, so I'm not entirely sure how far out of the realm of your expectations this really was.  

That being said, I'm not that familiar with individual vehicle powerplants and the like.  You might try going to one of the many Ford or Powerstroke forums and posing your question to other vehicle owners.

Good luck,
