I suspect the 8,000 lbs you are quoting is the hitch rating. That is just the strength of the steel in the hitch and says nothing about handling, braking, engine and transmission stress.
The more important figure is the GCWR, gross combined weight rating. That is the weight of the MH fully loaded, with people and fuel plus the weight of the toad. It might take less than 8,000 lbs for the toad to stay within the GCWR.
Also is the 2017 25.3 built on the E350 or the E450 chassis. It might make it if the E450. Doubtful if the E350.
