Not to sure who gets to pick the pin weight for the specs on the brochure, but it would be nice if they could be a little more accurate. My 2000lb pin weight puts 2600lbs on my truck. I do not have the 5th wheel overloaded as I only have a few items in it.
I have a truck with a 9200lb gvw and have a combined weight of 10,000lbs with the 5th wheel attached. At first I was a little concerned (still concerned), but after reading 23 pages on this forum, I am not alone. I guess I could buy a trailer with a posted pin weight of 1000lbs and be on the safe side. (NOT going to happen).
The answer to this is??????????????????????
