Go weigh the truck.
Now, load the camper and go weigh the whole thing.
Subtract the truck weight from the whole thing weight.
That is how much the camper weighs. It is HEAVY, if it is the 11 foot like mine was. If it is the 11 foot, IMO you need a one ton dually.
As stated, "dry weight" is a useless number. Think about it; are you ever likely to go camping with NOTHING in the camper?
