My payload is 2090....so I'm more concerned about my receiver limitation. The whole idea about tongue weight was brought on by a conversation I had with a major on-line hitch retailer. I actually do understand that the weight behind the rear axle becomes part of the bars ability to transfer weight. They had led me to believe the cargo behind rear axle actually affected the tongue weight. For a WD to work properly, yes you do need to include that weight in calculations which is why I went with a 14k hitch. I like to keep my generator in an easy to load and get to spot.
