CAT Scale question
I did something stupid, and someone here can probably help me figure it out.
A year and a half ago I weighed my truck and TT separately. I know I wrote down which ticket was for which vehicle, but I can't find that note, and after all this time I can't remember which is which.
The only clue: one ticket is has a steer axle weight and a drive axle weight (3200 and 3180lbs). The other one has steer axle wt of 200lbs, drive axle 0 lbs, trailer axle 6820lbs, gross wt of 7020.
I also vaguely remember that I may have done a separate weigh to try to figure out the tongue weight. Would it make sense that the 200lb "steer axle" wt is the tongue weight?
If so I find that hard to believe since the trailer specs show a "dry hitch wt," of 460. I realize that the 200 number is possible if I had a lot of wt in the back of the TT, but that doesn't seem likely. the only things at the back that were out of the ordinary were one bicycle hanging on the ladder, and the spare tire. the fridge full of food is slightly behind the wheels. All liquid tanks were empty. I added two heavy golf cart batteries on the tongue, which added about 100lbs. Propane tanks were probably half full.
So, this is really two questions:
1. Which ticket is for the truck, and
2. is it possible the 200 lbs is the tongue wt.?
Thanks!
