i just did a search and nothing came up, but has anyone taken their rigs to a flying J or other truck stop to weigh their truck/trailer combo? I'm picking up a 2015 Jayco Eagle 314bhds and I want to know exactly what my GCWR will be brand new off the lot, before I load it. then I'll make the return trip once we pack what will stay in the camper. (boys sleeping bag, pots pans utensils, etc.) Any one know what it costs?
Hopefully you are planning on a new 2500/3500 truck. That trailer is quoted at 7710, but will probably be closer to 8200 lbs on the yellow sticker. Your tongue weight will probably be close to 1200lbs when you are loaded, without water.
So your family of 5, hitch, and tongue weight put you over.
