I'll just let you read it yourself. It's an eye opener to an old trick camper fan and owner. Page 3 has a beautiful 1 ton dually overweight also with a small camper.
3500 over weight
That first one is not a dually.
The second one is. But there is a large discrepancy, on just how much a 811 weighs empty
The pictured dually SAYS that his camper is basically empty. Only propane,(40) batteries(130) and 1/2 tank of water (200) (=370) Yet weighs 4120. The SRW fellow says that his is fully loaded. The dry weight is 2873.
One of them is WRONG!!! Ya gotta pay attention when reading stuff on the net. Just because it is written, doesn't make it true.
But is does make me smile some as my Dually would not be overloaded in either case.
And thinking about just how much weight people manage to cram into a truck camper,,,, But here on the TT forum I constantly read of those with MUCH larger TTs that profess to hardly packing any weight into them.
