Your trailer tongue weight? Is that the factory weight, or does that weight include battery and 2 - 30 pound propane tanks. The battery and 2 - 30 pound propane tanks will increase the tongue weight significantly.

Thank for the reply.
The dry tongue wt is 598 lbs
Added 110 for battery and 2 full propane goes to 710 lbs.
Add 500 lbs of "stuff" into dry trailer gives, loaded correctly, (at 10%) gives another 50lbs to tongue
So Tongue is about 760. I have a Tongue scale, so I should be able to adjust the added TT cargo.
I have no plans to get a larger trailer (so I say now anyway ;-)
