I've heard that sometimes toy haulers can have more than 10% tongue weight, so I am not sure if it'd be worth the 120 bucks for the scale to verify before I buy the hitch?
Toyhaulers are designed to carry toys mostly behind the axles. This tends to increase the percentage of tongue weight relative to the total toyhauler weight when empty (no toys). I would go bigger (but not excessively bigger) on the hitch bars. Use gross weight of the toyhauler for your calculations (not actual loaded weight). By the way, nice ride you have selected for the tow vehicle. It will get the job done in spades. Join the TDR and tour the Cummins plant and you will never want anybody elses engine in any truck you own.
