In the past, Before 2009 this was prolly true. However todays yellow stickers on the trailer are required by law to tell the weight of the trailer as it sits on the lot in front of you. Meaning. IF there is an awing on it. It is included in the sticker weights. If there are empty propane tanks or anything else on it. they too are included in the sticker weights.
Dealers today add very little to the trailers when they come in. It is so much easier, and cheaper to have it done at the factory.
I wasn't aware of the change. Thanks for the information. Now, we are talking just about the yellow info sticker attached to the trailer? The dry weight given in brochures or otherwise may be incorrect?
Actually this was true way before 2009, the same info was on a white sticker inside the trailer.
And the brochure/website weights are almost NEVER real world numbers.
Usually you can add 3300-400lbs more to get a more accurate weight.
