I have a 2011 Chevy Silverado Crew cab Z71 5.3 L 3.73 towing a 2012 Forest River Hemisphere Light 24 ft dry weight 7400. Here is my issue. I know I should have bought a 3/4 ton and planning on buying one next year. I am nervous I am, over weight. I went to a cat scale and here are the basic results they gave me. Wish they were in more detail.
Truck
Steer axle: 5800
Truck/Trailer
steer axle: 6360
Drive axle: 7800
Total: 14160
My wife was not with me so I need to add her weight and my tanks were dry. Please advise.....

I would go back and try the scale again. Those numbers are nowhere close for the setup you described.
I have a F350 Diesel Crew Cab pulling a Crossroads 31' 5er.
Steer axle 5000
Drive axle 6200
Trailer axle 7800
GVW 18,200
And that's with me, DW, daughter, and 2 grandkids. Fully loaded and headed out.
