Found the build sheet to my TT.
I was looking at the brochure that shows a "dry weight base features only" of 4740 lbs.
Well, wow how fast it all adds up. Now I know why people see a brochure and don't have enough truck when they buy a TT. I guess it would be wise to go by the gross weight when matching to a TV, in my case it's 7000.
After the factory installed items it gained almost 1000 lbs. Now add 54 gallons of water (450lbs) plus propane (60). All your personal stuff, food, linens, tools and peripherals I'm right at 7000.
It's all really just plain common sense which is woefully lacking in today's world, along with basic education. :R
