Tongue weight & equalizer
I am buying a Ultra Lite 2702ws which has a tongue weight of 800 pounds. My dealer says that an equalizer will be able to reduce the tongue weight in half. Does this seem correct?

No, the dealer is incorrect. A WD hitch doesn't remove any tongue weight from the hitch ball. It removes some weight from the rear axle of the TV and puts it on the front axle of the TV, and puts some onto the trailer axle as well. The tongue weight is still the same, it's still on the hitch, and must still be counted against the cargo capacity of the TV.
