The difference between dry an loaded weight.
When I bought my 25 ft. TT the literature said 5004 lbs. dry and 400 lbs. on the tongue. Common sense said it would weigh more when loaded but how much more? So before a couple of our trips I took ...

One of the great hypcrositities on this forum is how just about everyone raves about having a lot of storage space..... And then touts how little they pack.
All that storage space is not needed to pack air.:B
ha ! True enough dog !
I will say for a little 19' trailer, this funfinder has a rather large pass thru in the front. I'm currently on the road again for my five month winter trip, and the compartment is only about 30% full. I will say it's nice to have the extra room because at times I can be a little less than neat when repacking and everything still fits.
I take probably more stuff than most. Fir instance I have my rotary electric buffer that I use to wax the trailer, small shop vac, etc, etc. Five months is a long time to be away without being able to do all my normal routines of maintenance, so a lot has to come along.
As I stated before I've only gained 100 pounds in the 5 years between weighings of this truck trailer combo. Honestly I could likely shed 50 pounds of simply non-used stuff if I tried.
