So here's a question. (Let me know if I should post a new thread).
If I weigh the trailer before we leave (scale is super close to our house) to make sure it's not too heavy and make sure we have no more than 15% on the tongue.... How do I know how much the trailer weighs on the way back since obviously things will change? I was thinking we could buy one of those small devices that will tell you your tongue weight so we can make sure to pack our trailer correctly but I don't know how to make sure it's between 10-15 if I don't know how much the trailer weighs...
