mrdorkdar, " Dry weight is only 3800. I was thinking with a propane tank and batteries maybe 4200? That’s not bad right"?
As people are saying, the dry weight is a really a meaningless number because there is no industry standard to where a manufacturer weighs an rv.
You need to look at the gross weight rating and that's the number where most people roll at.
Because its easy to over pack , the bottom line is have the TV control the TT not the other way around. You have to be extra careful using an suv.
My TT's advertised dry wt was 4200# with a TW of 525#.
When I bought it new I went to a scale without any personal gear. I sat on a scale at approx. 5500#, unknown TW at that time. I had 6 gals in the water heater and 5 gals in the water tank, plus twin 30# LP's and one grp 31 deep cycle on the tongue.
Once I loaded it for a trip I sat at 6500# with 850# of TW. My TW went up to 950# when I added a tongue mounted bike rack and 2 bikes . I towed with a 2016 1500 max tow GM pickup and I felt it was a good match for my TT.
