Couple things to help with your calculations.
1. Average camping load (dishes, pots and pans, bedding, BBQ, camp chairs, water etc) is about 700 - 1000 lbs. About 10% of that will be tongue weight.
2. Weight of a full 30 lb propane bottle is about 53 lbs. Two bottles would be over 100.
3. Brochure tongue weights are notorious for being lower than actual weights.
Thanks for the info, however, I did email rockwood and they told me the dry TW included the empty propane bottles, so I just added the weight of the propane - 60 lbs for the 2 bottles.
So add in the 100 lbs TW from loading it up, are you saying that the new TW is roughly 810 lbs?
