It may be helpful for you to go back and reread my entire post... It is not that long.... or complicated. And if the OP addresses what I state is a "for sure" problem.... He may very well be a happy camper.

What is laughable about his weight estimates? He knows what he loads in the trailer more than the weight police on this forum. He accounted for his water weight. 200 lbs additional can be realistic for everything else such as kitchen utensils, bedding, food, clothing, and misc gear, unless you have OCD or some other mental disorder, or are a hoarder.
Not everyone needs or hauls a ton and a half of additional stuff like some of you folks. Now if he's stacking cubes of brick or pallets of 8" block inside to build a pizza oven at the campground, then all bets are off.
He hasn't weighed it.
Contrary to what one reads on these boards, the vast majority of owners of towable RV's have never weighed them or what goes in or on them either. Neither have owners of boxed cargo trailers, flat trailers, boat trailers, or any other trailer. I do not see the roads littered with wrecked rigs, broken axles, twisted frames, tow vehicles with blown engines and grenaded tranny's etc. due to overloading? Maybe you see that stuff in your neck of the woods?
Simple things can be as complicated as you want them to be, and on these boards taking something that is about as simple as it can get and complicating it to no end seems to be the norm for quite a few people.
That's what is laughable.
