weight

We're soon to take delivery of a 2022 Rockwood 2720IK. There is a rear 2" hitch receiver and I'm wondering what others here have been successful in loading onto this receiver via a carrier. My dealer believes that the capacity is 300 lbs, which might only be a generous conservative figure...

I just picked up a VIBE 28BH which states it has a Tongue Weight of 930. Trailer dry is less than 7k lbs and total with cargo capacity is 9,692 lbs. I was wanting to pick up a 1200/12k equalizer because I felt like I was already closing in on that 1k tongue weight of the 10k equalizer and...

How many people agree with this "expert" answer? https://www.etrailer.com/question-224039.html I thought tongue weight was only the actually weight of the coupler as it sits on the ball? I learned on this forum that you don't even include the WDH head as part of tongue weight.

I purchased a Weigh-Safe Weight Distribution Hitch for a Geo Pro 19FD that I will be picking up from the dealer in April. I am interested in knowing if anyone has used this brand of hitch on a Geo Pro and any thoughts or suggestions.

I purchased a 2014 Forest River Legacy 340kp last Fall. Unfortunately the vehicle has a flat tire in the storage facility and I contacted a tire service provider to come and check/repair the tire. They have asked the weight of the vehicle. I can locate the GVWR and GCWR, but not the approximate...

I have the bunk bed setup on my Wolf Pup 17JG. There is a placard showing a rating of 150lb for the top bunk. Has anyone added additional support that would increase that rating? I would think screwing some wood strips aling the walls underneath the bunk would do it but I'm not familiar with...

As the subject says, can someone tell me how much payload is eaten by having 4WD on an F150? I'm referring to the transmission itself, not the optional FX4 skid plate, etc. Thanks
