What is "Dry weight?"
Newby here. I searched. No. Really. I did. ;) But a search for "dry weight" didn't give me a definition. When the specs on TT list a dry weight, is that the weight as equipped from the fact...

We're looking to buy a TT with a dry weight of 4178 pounds, but there's a sticker on the door that lists a weight in the 4550 range.
That "4550 range" is the REAL "dry weight"- the trailer as delivered. That weight is before you've put your scanties and your panties in it; let alone a gallon of water etc.
The number you need concern yourself with is the trailer's gross weight, which must be gleaned from mfr. specs by adding two figures together: the "pretend" dry weight plus the listed carrying capacity.
