Overloaded SRW????
This 2012 RAM 3500 SRW LB CC showed up with a Lifestyles 5th wheel with a GVWR of 18770 pounds. Truck has 17" tires and wheels. Guy seem oblivious to the fact that he just might be a bit over weight. ...

So owner said he thought(?) it was around 16K. With a 18770 GVWR then that would mean that he never tows in with very much in it, which is highly unlikely, people do not by trailers like a Lifestyle to not use it.
Next issue is the 17" tires on the truck. 17" tires have become the unwanted step child for pickup tires. These trucks have a 6200 RGAWR
So maybe some will read this and think that maybe they need to get weighed and maybe not believe a salesman that says a particular trailer.

Are these numbers for a 2500, they look about like the numbers for my 2013 Chevy 2500HD?
