Good point, and it may not necessarily be a downer. I went on the net and found a dealer with one on the lot with all the options I would order, except one. I would not order the installed generator. They are listing the pin weight at over 200 lbs. less than stated on Heartland's web site. Of course, the trailer is a little heavier with those options, but not a lot.
That's good advice; if it comes down to it, we could always ask a dealer to verify things for us.
Unfortunately dealer ads are mostly written by salesmen and from my experience nobody knows less facts about an RV than an RV salesman! The advertised pin weight on my Fuzion 315 was 3015 lbs and it scaled just over 3400 lbs on the trip home from the dealer before we put anything inside. Our "shipping weight" was also several hundred pounds more than advertised.
Someone else that speaks my language. :)
