Re: Whats Your Real Weights? Truck and Trailer. The Real Deal
I had heard that you could get your TV re-certified for a higher GCWR. I wish I had my truck and 5th wheel weighed before actually purchasing the unit. I would not have bought what I did if I had known what the total weight was. Not that my TV isn't more than capable of pulling my 5'er. But as it stands now, I am 500 lbs over my max GCWR. Maybe an excuse to buy a F450?457Views0likes0CommentsRe: Whats Your Real Weights? Truck and Trailer. The Real Deal
2002 F350 CC PSD DRW 4WD with 59 gallon internal tank topped off wife and two kids aboard: - steer axle 4700 lbs - drive axle 3520 lbs - gross weight 8220 lbs 2010 Jayco 365 BHS with above mentioned truck: - steer axle 4900 lbs - drive axle 5920 lbs - trailer axle 9620 lbs - gross weight 20440 lbs According to the data plate on my truck, Front GAWR is 5200 lbs. Have 300 lbs to spare. Rear GAWR is 8250 lbs. Have 2350 lbs to spare. My total GCWR is 20,000 lbs according to the Ford manual. So, if I am reading my weight slip correctly, I am already 440 lbs over my max GCWR. And I have not even started to load up the "extras"; tools, camping stuff, beach stuff, etc. Thoughts?457Views0likes0Comments
