Sorry Terry but that's simply is not true. Lots of options are added at the dealership and maybe they adjust the yellow sticker and maybe they don't. The list of available options on most trailers is at least a page or two long. Some options like batteries, propane tanks, awnings, upgraded AC units etc., are only added as buyer requested options and are installed at time of delivery. Some buyers want to 6 volt batteries, some opt for 30#(or larger), LP tanks the weight of which is not reflected in any dry weight.
My original point is that there is no consistency throughout the industry so the consumer does not know upon what those dry numbers are based. What the tailer weighed when it rolled off the assembly line is irrelevant, like asking what you weighed when you were born. It will never be that weight ever again so who cares? :h
Have you bought a new trailer lately? I have, and the weight is exactly as I said. When you walk onto the lot, and see the unit. It weighes what the sticker says. Now it will weigh more AFTER YOU, make the deal, and start adding things. But the first time you see it. It is the weight stated on the sticker.
BTW. FEW TTs come stripped down any more. They all come with propane tanks, awnings and AC installed. Few things have to be added at the dealership.
