How do you determine hitch weight?
And what do you do if the mfr's. website says one thing and the dealers say another? Most dealers won't let you drive to a scale to determine the correct weights.

The OP asked, "How do you determine hitch weight?"
The obvious answer is that you weigh it. You don't rely on dealers, manufacturers, or guesses and estimates from forum members.
I had one that was published at 500 pounds but weighed over 800 pounds when ready to go. Thankfully, I have plenty of tow vehicle to handle it. Others are not always that lucky.
