RV manufacturers are notorious for listing dry weights without any options. Unless they weighed the coach you have no idea what it really weighs unless you take it to a scale as you did. The coach more than likely weighs way more than listed as a dry weight. Figure water at 8.3 pounds per gallon, batteries, propane, etc. It all adds up. From the scale weights you are actually over your axle rating and maybe tire ratings as well.
Yes I understand what the scales are telling me, I just don't think it's right. I think I'm doing something wrong.
I agree that RV manufacturers don't give an exact weight, but I don't see them being roughly 1,000 pounds off.
Edit: Keep in mind that this is a toy hauler. It's meant to carry quads or dirt bikes, etc, in the garage. If the numbers the scales show are right then the only way you'd be able to use this as a toy hauler would be to not fill your tanks. That kind of defeats the purpose.
