I think the 1000 pound number is a bit conservative. In all reality, probably closer to 2000 pounds if you add all the contents ...
The problem is you're your own worst enemy :W ... WAY too much ****! :E For most people, an average +/- 1000 lbs would more than cover what they need to carry. ;)
And I would wager that a lot more of us are more like Dutchmen and after not having enough water hose to reach, needing that extension cord, wanting that electric drill for the stab jacks and even having a water line somewhere spring a leak carry a few more spares and "extras" with us that the first time weekenders haven't learned yet can "SAVE THE DAY" when things go wrong out in the boonies.
I like to keep things I normally use or might need in the trailer like my extra Eternabond tape, a bottle of "303", that large bottle of cheap DW soap and a couple of bottles of Calgon for the toilet, etc., etc. Over say 5 years or so it can really start to add up. That case of adult beverage or soda pop weighs in at close to 20lbs each!!!.
