But you can get pretty good estimates based on the experiences of others.how can you even tell how much your vehicle weighs, how much your trailer weighs fully loaded, and how much it all weighs together? The only numbers you can know for sure is what the dry weight of the trailer is and the weight of your vehicle with nobody or no cargo in it.
GaiaGoddess wrote:Yes, absolutely. For most of us that have actually done that, it's a real eye-opener. My 5800# trailer actually weighs 7300#. And FWIW, that difference is not at all unusual. So when people estimate their loaded weight at only 150# more than the published weight, you can see why alarms start going off.Is there some giant scale somewhere that weighs these things? Can you just drive up to one of those truck weigh stations on the interstates?
