Welcome to the forum.
Is 6500# the real weight, or the brochure weight? Most TT's weigh 300-500# more than the advirtised weight due to the "optional" equipment that's really standard. And you'll have 700-1000# of gear once you're ready to go.
What's the GCVW on the Mercedes? And the payload? I have a feeling that it'll be way too much trailer for the GL350.
What's the wheelbase on the Mercedes? Even with a good hitch I have a feeling it'll be a case of the tail wagging the dog.
And don't listen to the salesman when he says "Sure, you can tow that." All he wants to do is make a sale and has no legal requirement to make sure you're safe.
Thanks!! I know the wheelbase is 121.0", I'll have to look up the GCVW and the payload.
Yes, the TT weighed 6400lbs with all the included options and the salesman said it was fine? hmmm
