Okay, I did a little more analysis of the last weigh-in at the scales and my original post was a little misleading. My truck does weigh in at 5,580 lbs with me and 2 full tanks of fuel (3,120 lbs in the front and 2,460 lbs in the rear). When I weighed the camper and truck on the way back from purchasing it, my total weight was 9,600 lbs. I had 3,380 lbs in the front and 6,220 lbs in the rear. This was with my wife in the truck and an extra Happijac kit and, a 48" Class V hitch extension with chains and 2 full tanks of fuel. So, the camper weighed more than the 3,470 lbs on the sticker on the camper. After subtracting my wife and the hitch extension which were in the extended cab part, I estimate the camper to be at least 3,720 lbs or maybe I must've have had a big lunch that day!
Anyhoo, I just wanted to clear up some of the numbers.
