After weighing, we found out we were very close to the 7K limit. After waaayyy too many leaf spring failures on the 7K, bumping up to 8K brought us peace of mind. We did get to upgrade our tires and rims too. I do not know how much your rig weighs, but we are hovering around 18K...it is our full-time house, and we move weekly (typically)...getting stranded is not really an option.
