A difference of 1,078 lbs
so I am more evenly distributed with the trailer attached. than with out. Hum?
Looks like a difference of about 300lbs and the rear stayed the same.
You do not want or need a wdh with a trailer this size, period. No matter what the RV dealer and the 20 posts arguing bout how to adjust for a couple hundred lbs on a full size truck tell you.
Put some weight on the back of the truck and drive away.
It's a capable truck and a little trailer. Go camping and leave the wdh home.
One minor observation is the 300+ lb total weight difference on the truck hooked vs bobtail seems light for tongue weight. Heck the wdh is what 100lbs of that weight?
Seems like you actually need more weight on the tongue if your numbers are right. Need a couple propane bottles and battery on the trailer tongue or something.
