Congrats on the new camper!
Little late to be concerned about weight but ….
Not to worry. Did you hit a scale? Host lists 3900lb bare weight. If typical adders apply, it’s maybe sitting at 4500lbs. Add 1000lbs for your “stuff” and you’re still sell within your axle and tire ratings.
May want that extra help of airbags and or a sway bar in the future though.
Fwiw, emptied our TC couple years ago. Everything for a family of 4 including extra camping gear, enough fishing gear for 10 people, lol and a likely above average amount of tools etc.
Total was a half dozen huge Rubbermaid tubs. Maybe 300lbs of stuff.
Figure we probably pack 100lbs + of food and drinks, 150lbs of clothes and 400lbs of water, that is 1000 lbs and the camper was full in every nook n crannie save for room for clothes.
You have nothing to worry about. Enjoy the summer!
