Thanks for posting back with that information on the weights. With so few of them out there, finding someone with one would naturally be difficult. It looks like the pin weight won't be a problem for the F450.

Now, the overall weight at 23,000 GVWR for the trailer would be within the weight capacity of the F450 as well, but one would still need to be careful because it is getting very near the maximum "towing weight" for the truck. The 2013 Ford Super Duty brochure lists fifth wheel towing at 24,700 lbs.

The New Horizons fifth wheels are also about as heavy as the Full House and they say that the F450 is capable of towing theirs. I even know of one couple that has that configuration and they've not mentioned any problems.
