Dry weights are often without any optional equipment.
I added about 1500-1700# to the 4500# dry wt and doubled the TW to 950#-975# . My Jayco has an Acrtic package and Elite package which is a 12 option package .
My tw is sometimes more, depending if I carry a bikes ( 50# combined weight ) on the tongue or not (the tongue rack is there in place regardless)
I use 1000# bars but 1200's would also work.
