Mine has the tall windshield. Looking at Ford specs, e450 has thicker frame rails. probably other upgraded stuff. My spare would not fit in back between rails like others so it is in bin. I have thought of keeping on car trailer and using hitch mount when not towing trailer but that is too much work at present.

Need to add 235 to front, I was outside directing wife where to stop on scale.

Remember the rear includes tongue weight for dual axle car trailer. I am guessiing tongue wt right at 500 lbs. I carry Vegas spare in back compartment along with 2 bins of car parts. That along with tools adds a lot. Hate to tow out of town and have the racecar break.

I can move some wt around. Currently jacks/tools are in front bins. I can can bias more toward rear axle. I can also offload stuff to the racecar trailer. I carry spare set of slicks, 3 trailer spares and a 3500w 110 volt generator on trailer. I use the cheap generator most of time to cut hours on expensive Onan.

I am quite happy with the Vegas, glad we got the e450 for extra capacity. Issue we have had are minor, easily corrected.
