HI LOOKING for loaded pin wt, 16250 GVWR,3130 IS DRY,TRYING to see if i can get by with a srw with a payload of 3800,thxs
What do you really think?
3,800-3,130=670# that is for passenger and all the stuff you carry in the vehicle, I am assuming that your payload includes a full fuel tank.
The dry pin is 23% of GVWR, that will remain or increase based on what you place in the basement. So at max GVWR pin would be 3,737#.
Your payload is only 2,792# so assuming you travel light so half is 1,400# at 23% is 321# of additional pin weight, so now at 349# for hitch and passengers.
Do yourself a big favor, and just buy a DRW!
