Is a higher TT GVWR better?

Higher CCC would suggest heavier duty components. Tires, axles, suspension, frame, which would, logically, seem safer as you would not be running as close to maxing out everything. Some TTs are close to GVW empty. On the other hand, it depends some on how the GVW was calculated. My TT has a GVW of 11,700. The same TT a few years later was rated at 10,400. The later rating was the total of the two 5200lb axles. The earlier rating included tongue weight which, in this case is heavy, (12-1300lbs). According to the sticker, the UVW is 7860. Same TT, different way of figuring GVW. Even funnier, the higher rating came with 15" load range D tires, (16" E rated were an option. Around the time they lowered the GVW, they also went to the 16" E range wheels and tires as standard. Looking at the brochure from one year to the next, there is no indication of how the GVW was calculated, it's just different.
