It certainly would be beneficial to see the actual, operating weights to include PIN weights vs the listed weights from the manufacturer on any given rig.

Truck is with me, wife, 2 kids, and full fuel (39 gal)
Trailer is no liquids, 4 quads, all gear, food/beverage for 3 days
Truck 05 F350 CC DRW 4WD 6.0 Auto
Trailer 02 Thor Tahoe 33WTB
Truck Only Weight Rating Over/Under
Front Axle 4960 6000 -1040
Rear Axle 3700 9000 -5300
Truck GVW 8660 13000 -4340
Truck & Trailer
Front Axle 5000 6000 -1000
Rear Axle 5840 9000 -3160
Trailer Axle(s) 7860 12000 -4140
Truck GVW 10840 13000 -2160
Trailer GVW 10040 13500 -3460
Hitch Pin 2180
Total (GCVW) 18700 23500 -4800
BTW, I've made an excel spreadsheet that you just enter your ratings, and the actual axle weights. Anyone can get the ratings off the truck/trailer stickers and the weights off the scale ticket. Calcs the pin weight and over/under (gives a green/yellow/red indicator). It would probably help anyone that gets confused from all the different numbers. If anyone would like it, just hit me up.

Actual CAT Scale weights:
TV = 2005 F-350 Lariat 4x4 CrewCab Long Bed SRW with 80-90 gal Diesel, driver, Hitch Front 4940 Rear 3720 Total 8660
2005 McKenzie Medallion 36RLT 70 gal water, full propane, empty waste tanks, "normal" gear hitched to truck Front 4940 Rear 6600 Trailer Axles 11500
Thus, Pin weight = 2880, Total trailer weight = 14380
GCVW = 23040 GCVWR = 23000
So I was over by 40 pounds - I now travel with less fuel and empty water - will be looking at an F-450 when we go full-time - I would like more capacity and DRW.
