Ok here are my real weights. Combo was weighed on a CAT scale. Truck empty on a certifed shipping scale, single weight only.
Gross wt. truck, trailer, and cargo loaded for camping: 22480 lbs.
Truck Fr. Axle:4980 lbs.
Truck Rr. Axle: 5760 lbs.
Trailer Axles: 11740 lbs.
Truck: 2004 Ford 4WD CC DRW 6.0 Powerstroke
Fr. GAWR: 5200 lbs.
Rr. GAWR: 8250 lbs.
GVWR: 11500 lbs.
GCWR: 20000 lbs.
Weight Empty w/driver and 1/2 tank fuel, and hitch: 7920 lbs.
Trailer: 2013 Cedar Creek Silverbak 35QB4
GVWR: 15500
Weight fully loaded for camping (calculated, Gross 22480 lbs. - (truck wt.+ 500 lbs. cargo) ):14060 lbs.
I'm 2480 lbs. over on GCWR but not over on either axle or GVWR on the truck or trailer. What I don't get is why truck GVWR doesn't equal combined axle ratings. Truck pulls fine, rides level as does the trailer. Made a few quick stops in traffic and no problem. Pulled some pretty good hills in the Smokies. I'm ok with the handling and feel of everything. Feel free to correct my math. Never been a math whiz. Ok weight police, have at it.
Edit: I forgot pin weight. My calculation: (Fr. + & Rr. Axle weights) - (Truck weight + 500 lbs. cargo)
10740 - 8420 = 2320 lbs.
2320/14060 = 16.5 % of trailer weight
