Truck and trailer in signature line, full of fuel, food, wife, kids and the dog yesterday on the scales.
Front 5040lbs
Rear 5260lbs
(300 lbs over recommeneded truck total of 10k, but 700lbs left on the rear axel/tires)
Trailer 6700lbs
Total 17000lbs
Drops a little when loaded but not enough to warrant bags at all and I get 10 to 12 mpg (depending on terrain) at 65mph.

(Not pulling the boat either, never pulled doubles with it)
