I think 25% calculation for pin weight is on the high end, unless you're in a bigger trailer. Ours is 36' with a gross weight of 13xxx pounds. When I weighed it lightly loaded, it weighed 111xx pound, and the pin weighed 20% actual weight.

I think I would agree - Ours is 25% but only when fully loaded with gear and 110 gals of water that sits under the front basement. We are 17,222 total 5er weight and with water and pin is 4,320 lbs. comes out about perfect to 25% but this model is way nose heavy by floorplan. Other floorplans aren't nearly that nose heavy in ours.
