I bought a 2022 XLR Hyperlite 2513, the dry weight says 8,500 lbs. When I put my bike in the back and fill the tanks I'll be pushing 10,000 lbs. I have a 2019 5.3 Engine 1/2 ton 1,500 Silverado with the sway control, I was told at the dealership that the truck would easily pull the rig. Did I get lied to? It feels like the truck is struggling...

When you add the trailer certification weight to the truck certification weight, does the sum exceed the GCWR for the rig? That's your answer.
