plan on 15 percent high side 13 percent low side and use the gvwr. you may well be 500 lbs over dry weight when you pick it up empty. also remember weight of your hitch comes off payload if you didn't include that with your load in the vehicle.
The 272BHS has an extremely high cargo capacity for its class at 2500lbs. That completely puts it out of our range if I assume it weighs 7500lbs and has 13% - 15% (975lbs - 1125lbs).
Even if it's 500 pounds over the dry weight, I can't possibly imagine any situation where we'd have 2,000lbs of stuff on board. We have friends who full time with 2 kids and they only have 1,500lbs on board.
