I just received my new trailer tongue weight scale and tried it out today on my 2600RB. In a mostly Empty trailer (eg no water, food, and a small battery in position), it weighed about 650 lbs. When fully loaded I suspect it will come in closer to 750-800 lbs. just providing this for a reference point for those, like me, who are curious about such things. I got the scale from trailer...happy with both product and service.

Your right in there. My tongue weight ready for a trip and with full water is 940 lbs. I have an older 2600RB where my GVWR is 6995 lbs where my loading for the CAT scales was around 6500 if my memory serves me.Originally posted by RickinCalgary View Post

Hi Jim, Thanks for your comment. My 2020 gvwr is 7850, I think the axles have been changed to 4400#. Regardless, a great trailer. Cheers!Originally posted by MidwestCamper View Post2019 F150 Lariat (5.0, 3.73 7000 GVWR, Tow)

Hello, I have a 2021 2600RB as well and weighed the tongue using the bathroom scale and beam technique. I got 898 pounds with water battery and some minor gear and propane. 862 when I drained the water tank. I am not confident I had the trailer on a great flat spot - it may have been sloping slightly toward the tongue. I should clarify that I measured the front electric jack stand weight, not the actual tongue which would have been lighter.Comment

Yep--there's a different calculation for the jack point. See https://gdrvowners.com/towing-and-hi...g-helpful-infoOriginally posted by Alanj View Post
