Weights listed in the brochure or on a web site are grossly inaccurate. Dry weight is usually nothing loaded, including battery and propane tanks. Since your calculating capacities, most people will say to take the gross weight of a TT and multiply it by 13% to calculate tongue weight. This gives you some wiggle room because your most likely not going to load it to it's full capacity. So if you took a TT with a 6000 lb gross weight * 13%, it gives you 780 tongue weight. Subtract that from your TV's payload - you mentioned 1772, and you have 992 lbs left over for everything else.
I was under the impression that you already bought the truck.
