The thing that gets iffy on those stretched 1-tons is, the front axle gets very heavy, I still don't understand how the limo companies can make a 40' long limo out of an F450 and not be over weight with 10-14 people in it.

Our 2001 GMC Roadtrek was close to max tire load on the front and that was with G-load tires.
The GMC does not have as much rear over hang to take some off the front axle.
