We just returned from a 4-day "Dry Camping" trip east of the mountains in Washington State. I filled our fresh water tank (155 gallons) before leaving. Both the grey and black tanks were empty at this time. Unfortunately, there were no RV dumps anywhere close to the campground so, I drove back home with the grey/black tanks with the same amount of water that had originally been in the fresh tank (about 1,290lbs (155 X 8.33lbs per gallon of water). I also had a Honda Pioneer and Honda Rancher in the back of the rig along with 4 kayaks. Total payload weight was right around 3,724lbs which is well below the max payload capacity of 5,000lbs for a 398M. We've got a 2021 RAM 3500DRW for towing which had zero problems with the weight but, my burning question is more about towing with holding tanks at about 50%. Does anyone have input on this subject. Has anyone experienced issues when having to tow with tanks at this capacity? I know the warnings in the manual say that the tanks "should" be "almost" empty but, there are times when that is not possible after dry camping. If there are issues that anyone has had in the past then, we will definitely not be doing this again!
Thanks!
