Has anyone weighted a 38RL that is loaded up pretty good on options?
My 2012 38RL weights; loaded for weekend, with full LP, 40 gallons fresh water, no waste water. Unit has no generator (yet) but has washer and dryer.
Trailer Pin Weight 3020 lbs
Trailer axle weight 11780 lbs
Gross Weight 14,800 lbs

My as shipped weight from the factory on the door label is just over 14,000 lbs.
I had my truck and trailer weighed by RVSEF (RV Safety Foundation) about a year and a half ago.
My trailer weight was just under 17,000 lbs.
My Pin Weight was just under 3,000 lbs.
Since my wife passed away earlier this year and I now travel by myself, I now have less stuff onboard.
I plan on getting weighted at the Rally again this year after I have the MorRyde IS installed just prior to the Rally.
I know MorRyde weighs the trailer during their installation process but I do not get truck and pin weight.
How is you pin weight so low? No generator, no washer/dryer?
Were your water tank and propane tanks empty?

My Pin Weight is low because it is a Front Living Model.
No I do not have a Generator but I do have a Stackable Washer / Dryer.
The Washer / Dryer in a front living model is in the bathroom which is over the axles so they do not add to the pin weight.
Also on a Front Living, the Black and Grey tanks are under the bathroom area (over the axles) the fresh water tank is up front, so adding water to the fresh water tank will increase the pin weight.
There is not much weight up front in my FL, I have a theater seating unit in the nose cap, two sofa's in each of the front slides (no sleeper sofa's) so not much weight there either.
Even my large kitchen pantry is over the axles too.
My pin weight last scaling was 4230. I am probably heavier now. Total weight was 16200 I have washer 6500 Onan and we fulltime
Wow that's a lot of pin weight !!!
You are at 26% pin weight to total weight, I am at the other end of the spectrum at 17.5% pin weight to total weight
That's why I had to get rid of my single axel. I really did not want a dually but had no choice

Be careful Shane! You might start something with the single/dually thing! Lol

Yup
I like stirring the pot.
To each their own
but you only added one post to the 3/4 or 1 ton debate raging over on the other place, (you know where I mean).
My pin weight was 4200 with a generator and the water tank full. I don't travel with it full, but I do have a dually and feel safer with it.
I've given enough to the same people on the crossroads forum
It's all in fun
Definitely watch what you say on that forum!!!!

As far as I'm concerned they can tow with whatever they see fit as long as their accident due to overloading doesn't involve me or mine!
