I understand the concept of too much weight behind the axle causing serious issues when towing. We're looking at purchasing the GD Solitude 390RK which has tons of storage behind the axles. Our current tow vehicle is a 2019 F-350. When doing the calculations, after adding w/d, batteries, generators, etc we have approximately 164 pounds of available payload left for the truck. Not being a physics major I also understand the teeter- totter principle for every pound you add to one side you need to add one pound to the other sided to "level" things out. So, my question is this......Because there are two axles that aren't centered on the RV front to back, Is there a ratio of how much weight you add to the back to reduce the pin weight on front. I.e.....if I place 300 pounds of stuff in the front two compartments that will put my payload over limit, how much stuff do I need to place in the back storage areas to offset the excess weight on the truck?
I hope all this makes sense! Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
