Very cool to see someone else that gets real life weights.
What is the GVWR and GCWR of your truck?
That is alot of pin weight for no waters or toys. Does your trailer have a bedroom slide?

He's pin heavy as there's no toys in the garage. Will still be lots of pin weight for a 2500.

1500 pounds over GVWR without passengers seems like a lot to me. I try not to be the weight police, but that sounds really high.

Looks like 10,500 or thereabouts on the truck. With a 9200 GVWR you are overloaded . Also you are overloaded on the rear tires. Which is the real scary part IMHO.

He needs a one-ton. A little over on the rear axle/tires and way over on the GVWR.

Once he posted his GVWR and GCWR I was going to tell him he needs a 1 ton.

His rear axle it rated at 6200lbs. He's right on it, but not over. Will be less with toys and water.

HAHA. It's just too easy to get people fired up here.
My GVWR is 9200, front axle GWR is 4670, rear axle GWR is 6084, tires are 3195 @ 65, and if I remember correctly GCWR is 22k.
The only thing better than a weight thread is an outdoor speaker thread. Flame on people!!!
