Ok Got my truck and VRV 8.5x22 weighed yesterday at the CAT scales. Now my trailer was empty and the propane tank was half empty and the battery was removed.
Trailer only 3960
Truck 5500 (Ram 1500 crew cab 4x4 Hemi)
Tongue weight without EQ bars hooked up 900
Tongue weight with EQ bars 580
Now as most of you know the "toys" will be loaded in the back decreasing tongue weight. I will be hauling a quad and 3 dirt bikes plus all the gear to camp for 4 days. I will have to go back to the scales to make sure I load correctly to maintain about 750lbs of tongue weight.
Hope this info helps.

Steve, thanks so much for taking the time to weigh and report results to us. I really look forward to how your toys impact things.
