Re: Newbie Safety Guidance Requested
Thanks for the quick reply. My trailer's sticker shows a GVWR of 7,592. So, if I understand you correctly, I should subtract the 5,829 from this number and the result would be 1,763 pounds. Is this the total amount of cargo that I can take? Also, should this number be divided up between the camper and the bed of my truck or is this all for the camper?91Views0likes1CommentNewbie Safety Guidance Requested
Hello Good Sam Community, I am a new RV'er and am looking to take my first extended stay trip (About 2 months total). I am looking for guidance on how to best calculate the maximum amount of cargo I can carry between my truck and my travel trailer. My truck has a tow capacity of 11,200 pounds and my trailer dry weight is 5,829 pounds. I am somewhat confused as to what I can safely carry in the bed of the truck and what I can store in the camper itself. Safety is my top concern and I don't want to create a problem for myself by not planning smart. Thanks for any help!96Views0likes4Comments
