Just take your dry tongue weight add 100lbs for full propane tanks, prob another 75lbs for batteries, prob 50lbs for the hitch itself, most campers have a storage unit in the front of the camper so I added another 100lbs just for junk in the front, then whatever u will haul behind the rear axle of the pickup in the bed. I always have a generator and fuel. Add it all up and if it's just under the 1000 mark or close I would just go up to the 1500 bars. Won't hurt anything. Enjoy!
