COG Questions
New to TCs and researching my first purchase. I've recently read about COG and I have seen it measured in numbers such as .54 etc. does the mean the center of gravity is 4" in front of the rear axle? ...
Forum Discussion
A couple of things to consider:
Fact is, the advertised COG of a TC is measured with tanks empty. Unless the tanks are dead centered at that COG point (often unlikely) the addition of a substantial quantity of water will cause the COG to shift either forward or rearward depending on tank location.
As to the OP's rather substantial F-450, I doubt that he'll have much of a problem.
