Stacey Franks AKA "Stripit" who posted earlier is hiding his light under a bushel on this weight thread as he used to weight these rigs professionally with independent certified wheel scales.
I'm willing to bet he never saw a 36' Mobile Suites weigh under 15K unless it was empty of everything; no flatware, no portable BBQ, nada in the storage bay, empty.
So right, these are well built heavy units. Some folks actually care what they put into them, others not so much. I saw some really heavy/over weight trailers. people wondered why tires failed. Some of the things folks carry would make you laugh. How about a 60 gallon fresh water fish tank in the bedroom! Or a old upright piano in the living room! Everything has a weight, where you put it in the trailer can make a difference, but it still adds to the total weight. Plan ahead and enjoy your travels.
