So, assuming this is marketed at happy homeowners who tow a trailer, how often would you actually use it? Do you guys weigh your setup before every trip to see if the wife snuck in too many cans of beans and put you over payload?
Seems like 1 and done unless you’re overly ocd or change trailers.

I've literally never run anything over a scale except at the county dump where they charge by weight. Never had any issues. I think I learned this skill of not really giving a $hit from growing up on a farm where we just made things work.

I'm 100% with ya IdaD. I must be from the same up-bringing. I recall as a little kid, loading dad's truck full of firewood, stacked to the roof of the truck. Biggest thing I recall he did to prep for that was make sure the back tires had a full 80psi in them.
Then working as a mechanic at a local mom n pop landscape nursery, I learned what really loading a truck down could do. (I also got pretty proficient at welding frames and spring perches and replacing axle shafts!)

That's why I have to giggle, sorry, laugh heartily, when someone is niggling over whether the weight of the passenger or fuel is included in the gvw!

Funny, with all the towing and hauling I do, the only time I've been over a scale is also at the dump!
