So reading this, I gather that being slightly under GVWR isn't a concern, even on long grades?
I calculate I'll be 28lb under the GVWRand we'll traverse I-24 one to three times a year round trip, so up to three trips per year down a 5% grade for 4 1/2 miles, and up to three trips per year down a 6% grade for 4 1/2 miles. That's the worst we expect to see.
Doesn't sound risky but does anyone disagree? I'm all ears.
Really Calculated that you will be 28# under! Hope are not too worried about being over, won't take much more that a big lunch to put you over, and the TV will start falling apart. :B
My GVW can swing several hundred pounds depending on fuel and what is in the fiver. :S
The calculations aren't as important as the question. Is there any concern on the grade that I mentioned being slightly under or right at GVWR?
