I believe that what the add is saying is 6500 lbs. of "on the jack weight", i take that as being more to hitch weight not total weight of the trailer. How do you know what the hitch weight is? I have read a lot on here about that, and what i found was the most accurate way was to go to a truck stop and use the scales there. to find hitch weight i just put the landing gear on the scale and got the hitch weight. i did this fully loaded and ready to travel. many others on here have better and other ways and will be glad to let you know how. also, in other posts others have detailed directions on how. I like to use the scales, and it worked for me. have a great year camping.387Views0likes0CommentsRe: Cool Mods - Thread restored 10/18/2012

I do not post much but read many of the threads. The chit chat and banter are some of the most interesting things, I laughed for 10 minutes about the water and power then fell out of my chair at the clock with the plug hanging! if those are not "tips, tricks, and hints", I have no idea what is, I was trying to figure out what I had here at home to make some of these up myself for my next camping adventure. I overlook most of the mean and “holier than thou” comments and the ones from the" I know best" category but this just hits me as wrong. All of our time is precious and we must not waste it, but posting several times about your displeasure and intent to unsubscribe to the post is a waste of time as well but I read it also. Thanks for all the good posts and bad posts GOD BLESS AMERICA281Views0likes0Comments
