Tongue Weight
Sorry for the posts lately, but I want to get this right. I'm looking at two different TT's. One is 4500lb with a 450lb hitch weight, the other has a front kitchen with a 5500lb weight and 700lb hit...

It has always seemed to me that more tongue weight makes for more stable towing.
Make sure you aren't looking at brochure dry weights. The real tongue weight could be 200# or more added onto the dry weight.
To estimate tongue weight I figure 15% of the GVWR of the trailer. Might be less, could be more but that will get you close.
