Keep in mind that RV Toy Haulers are designed with higher tongue weight to offset when the toys are loaded up. With a cantilever being created from the toys being loaded in the back of the RV Toy Hauler, it ends up reducing the tongue weight. My suggestion is to cargo load up your specific trailer and remeasure the tongue weight to know what you are dealing with.
And BTW, many, many hitch receivers actually have two weights on them. One for without WDH and one with WDH. I recall you mentioning you were provided with WDH when you bought that trailer? Are you using the WDH and does your SUVs hitch receiver have a WDH tongue weight number?
With that short a trailer and WD he is going to lose 200#s off the 800# anyway ..... puts him at the rating.
Taking some off that 600 once the car is on.....well it may be a bigger problem than the empty weight cause he is headed towards less than 10% rapidly and you know where that leads .....
