Help me decipher my weight slip
I stopped by a CAT scale on the way out to our destination. We were packed for travel with a full tank of fuel. Passengers included myself, my wife, and 15 year old daughter. Tow vehicle is 2016 F2...

I think you should have gotten 1 or 2 of your free re-weighs while you were there. Something wasn't right.
I will guess that you were pulled too far forward and had both truck axles on the "steer" section. This would mean your truck is carrying 10,660 total. I will guess you had the tandem trailer axles sitting right at the joint between the "drive" and "trailer" sections. This would have 3480 on your front trailer axle and 4660 on your rear trailer axle.
With the numbers you posted THIS ^^^^^^^^^ is the most logical ciphering
one could come up with
Truck steer/front axle should be 4600-4800 (diesel)
Truck drive/rear axle should be 5600-5800 (with trailer pin weight)
Jayco 5th wheel axles should be 6800-7200 (total of both axles)
Need to reweigh.
3 weigh platforms
Truck front wheels on forward platform
Truck rear wheels on middle platform
Trailer axles on rear platform
And you should drop trailer in parking lot and go back and get juts truck weighed.
Front wheel on forward platform, rear wheels on middle platform
Then you have ALL weights ---what truck weighs, what truck trailer weighs, what pin weight is etc
But those numbers you have make no sense.
