Is this leaving you only 1,300 pounds for stuff, water etc. in the FW? 100 gallons of water is about 830.
Nope, 14,300 lbs is the total GVWR of the trailer. The unloaded dry weight of the trailer is 10,800 lbs. That gives me 3,500 lbs for water, cargo, etc which I doubt I'll even come close to.
Even fully loaded to 14,300 lbs, the way I read it I still have a 1,300 lbs margin for the truck's maximum weight for the fifth wheel trailer.
