Real world Northstar Laredo weight

To those that own a Northstar Laredo, have you ever determined the actual weight of the camper? Thanks in advance.

    Man...those pop-ups are heavy!


    Sorry, truck and camper....hardside. Can't find the empty weight of truck but I think it was 6700 lbs.

  • My '04 Laredo's manual came with what I assume is a scaled weight at the factory of 1962 lbs. That is dry weight. After weighing my camper loaded lightly for a weekend trip at 8850 I have to believe the factory weight is accurate. My truck is an '03 2500hd Silverado, CC, gasser.

    My scaled weight was without me and ~ 10 gallons of water. BTW, my camper is a bare bones model with no ac or all season package.
