TT1 is only one that will not be too heavy (close) by the time you add 1500# of stuff
I agree, you will add 1000-1500 lbs of gear, so TT1 will be near 7000 lbs ready for camping. Pin weight will be around 15%, so maybe 1050 lbs and that is getting real close to the max. pin weight with a weight distribution setup. In addition, the truck's dry weight is around 5500 lbs and GVWR of 6900 leaves TOTAL carrying capacity of 1400 lbs. Subtract the pin weight from that and there is very little left over for your family and gear in the truck.
