well,
yep we are over. weird though as according to all the numbers, we are with everything except generator as that will happen when we get home, right at 17250 that is figuring in the generator weight. GCVW for me is 16000 but second page of my manual allows an extra 1000 for pin weight if towing fifth wheel or gooseneck. I hit the scale and it gave us a combined weight of 17260. Truck front axle up by 100 lbs, rear axle up by 2040 and trailer axles are 8100. Pulls great, no problems in hills fuel MPG hasn't really changed and tows great! just wondering if one of the scales are off. will get home and take it to the same scale I did the original weights on. just hate to keep spending money o scale tickets. Well truck color isn't the same as trailer either, so maybe I buy a new truck!!!! ha.
