I believe you may be mistaken. The GVWR on an Axis 24.1 is 12500 lbs and the GCWR is 18500 which gives approx 6000 lbs of towing capacity.
The hitch rating of 8000 pounds is not your towing capacity. That is only the weight the hitch can handle.
Very few class A gas motorhomes can tow an empty F150 yet alone one loaded down with kayaks etc... The smaller diesel pushers can't even handle that with if they have the 340 HP Cummins and Allison 2000 series transmission.
Might want to reconsider the plans.
