You will want to consult the owners manual for the 2005 Fleetwood Jamboree built on a Ford E-450 chassis for the towing capacity. According to the regular owners manual the RV cutaway models of the 2005 Ford E-450 have a 10,000 pound gross trailer weight capacity and a gross combined weight rating of 20,000 pounds (this is the most that the vehicle and trailer or towed vehicle can weigh including all cargo, fuel, passengers, etc.).
