The bathroom scale works ok if you are well under 1000 lbs. Most bathroom scales only go up to 300 lbs and if you have a lot of TW you have to keep getting further out on the bathroom scale. I was able to do it for my 1350 lbs of TW but I bent the bathroom scale.. I eventually went to a commercial scale to verify the bathroom scale method and it was pretty close.
Like most Toy Haulers, my Toy Hauler bumper pull with it 2700lbs loaded tongue, is hard on bathroom scales, even with a 8' long lever... lol
While the receiver hitch scale is a good novel idea, most/many bumper pull Toy Haulers, are unfortunately way over its max capacity.
