Hmm. Weight keeps going up? I guess I gotta think about this.
thanks
Why not just read the sticker under the door on the truck and do what it says? That brochure spec at 3,500 is totally ridiculous.
It helps if you use the same language too. That other guy says his sticker shows a "cargo weight". The stickers I have seen say more like "passengers and cargo should not exceed xxxx" Usually the seating spec is 150lbs each.
So if the sticker says, eg, 3,000lbs max, and you have a 5 seater, your "cargo" limit is 750 less than that for 2,250 (and that will be in the glove box as the "camper weight" or the "Cargo Weight Rating") and the hitch is 250 leaving 2,000 for pin wt. (which means a 5er with GVWR of 10,000) For instance.
It is what it is.
