It is around 8500 lbs. Weight limit on trailer is 10,000 lbs. Dry weight 7780 lbs. The suspension isn't bottomed out, but I can see where this would be a cause if it were.
If the dry weight was 7,780 pounds when it left the factory, there is no way the weight of it, loaded and ready for a trip, is around 8,500 pounds. I know it weighs more than that.
I am certain you are over your limits in all aspects but one -- your advertised tow capacity.

It may or may not be over limit, I will have to recheck the weights. We purposely travel light and do not load any extra items not absolutely necessary. But, I was actually trying to get info as to whether other RVer's usually experience this phenomenon (within weight limits or not) on certain roads while pulling a travel trailer. If so, this may change my desire as to which RV I purchase in the near future. Thanks:h
