Thanks, everyone.
Dug up my original owners manual, and found the following within:
Max trailer weight for 6.6 Diesel Dually is 16,500lbs
GCWR is 22,000lbs
Max pin weight is 3,500lbs
GVWR for the truck is 11,400lbs, 4,800lbs front axle, 8,550lbs rear axle.
So, if max trailer weight is 16,500 and GCWR is 22,000, does that mean my truck weighs 5,500 "dry"? Seems light to me.
And I assume that GCWR would include people on board, so how can anyone even be in the truck with a 16,500 trailer attached? That would mean the truck is even lighter than 5,500lbs, right?
Confused.
