So what is the bottom line then, My truck has axle weights that total 13,000 lbs, gvwr is 10,000 lbs I'm loaded with camper at 10,700 lbs, tires are total 14,500lbs total weight so are you good hauling the 10,700 lbs, the truck handles great with it no squat at rears been on several trips with these numbers, brakes well from 55mph because thats my cruising speed, planing a 7000 mile trip leaving at the end of the week won't even think about it. As one poster said concerning tractor trailers the mfg's don't say what you can haul but the dot goes by axle and tire ratings which make me laugh, in the USA you cannot exceed 80,000 gross, in Canada mind you with a 5 axle trailer 140,000 gross but you can get permits from dot and city where you to put 155,000 on, humm sounds fishy to me its all about money the permits are expensive but they are out there!!!
