Your 15% tongue weight numbers are way overblown. 12% is more realistic, and all you need is 10%.
I use 15% as a worst case scenario calculation when figuring capability. I do weigh to know the numbers for sure. My TT was right at 11%. My POP UP camper weighed 2,900 wet and had a 450 lb tongue weight. No matter how I loaded it 450 was the lowest I could get it. That was 15.5% at its lowest.
There are some trailers that are tongue heavy and there just isn’t a lot you can do about it. Figure heavy and if it turns out to be lighter and closer to 10% that’s great. Not all campers can get to 10%
Thanks!
