An interesting list but it still does not tell you what your TT weights. I have no idea what we packed in our pantry but it was enough to make a corner of a shelf give way. :) Of course the fine old world craftsmanship did not help. :) :)
I will repeat once more, it make no difference what you think your TT weighs, how you think your axel weight is distributed, or what the information you have says it should be. The scales do not care.
If you weigh your rig and you were right, you get a "atta boy" and a hardy pat on the back. If you are wrong, well you were smart enough to find out.
For the new comer I think they can see that the loaded weight for the road is going to be about 1000 to 1500 lbs. over the dry weight. That was the intent of the post.
