No way to know if it is "nose heavy", F-450 does not seem to care; it has always weighed this much. Not unexpected; I have a generator and all of my storage is in the front. The pin box is already at max height (due to height of truck bed rails, and the purchase of a $2000 tailgate last year, but that's a different story). The trailer now tows a little nose high which I think would put more weight on the rear axle. The weights I quoted were checked before I raised my pin box one hole (last one) so there may not be that much axle weight difference. I plan to rotate.
