Been lurking here for a few years, posting sporadically. Hopefully by this time next week, we will be the proud owners of a new 2014 Rockwood HW296!
I have a 2007 Silverado 1/2 ton truck to haul it with. My question is, should I get a WDH or just go with the TV the way it is? Truck has a factory installed towing package rated at 5000 lbs, towing weight, and 600lbs. hitch weight. The new Popup is rated at 373lbs. hitch weight, and 4573lb. GVW. Can't decide whether a WDH would be needed, or not. Hate to spend the dough if it is not needed. Thanks for all the advice I have gleaned so far.

We had the grandkids with us, and that made it worse for her. I had my pistol with me just in case, and she said, you can't shoot them! I said just watch me! If it comes between my family's safety, and a Javelina, he's gonna loose every time!!!

If you really wanted to quantify it, hook up and go weigh where you can weight each axle. Get a weight with the camper attached and then without. The difference on the front axle weight is how much the tongue weight is unloading the front.
