What should i do??????

I Love my 07 Screw and bought it only intending to tow snowmobiles in the winter. Now the kids are getting older we want to get a camper. After reading all the conflicting opinions I dont know what to do!!!! I dont want to kill my truck and risk the safety of my family!!!! I see there are alot of people on here pulling some BIG campers and say they have no problems. I just dont understand all weight configurations??????? I read on the ford website my truck is rated for #8300 towing so i found a 27' camper that i love and the dry weight is #6200 so i think well even fully loaded it will be way under #8300 no problems!!!! Now i have to figure in truck, fuel, passenger,gear weight !!!! I'm confused I dont want to upgrade to a F250 but i also dont want to buy a pop up camper cause its the safest thing to tow!!!!!!!!! My truck has the 5.4 with the tow pkg and 3.55 gears .Thanks for any input!!!!!!
