RAWR 6500#
14K GVWR trailer will leave you a little bit of rear axle capacity
15K GVWR trailer will max out (possibly overload) rear axle
Wet Pin would be roughly 3100#/14k and 3300#/15K
Go weight truck 'camp ready' (loaded up ---passengers, fuel, stuff etc)
Compare actual axle weights to axle ratings (RAWR 6500#)
Difference between rating and actual is amount rear axle can 'carry' in pin weight
