These numbers alone are not enough to say that it is safe or unsafe, wise or foolish. The larger (size, not weight) the trailer is, the more likely it is to require as much as 15% of the loaded weight on the tongue to prevent dangerous sway and loss of control. The maximum tongue weight is 750 pounds, but again, that number alone is not enough to say safe or unsafe. The weight of the passengers and gear in the truck must be factored into the total. With these numbers alone, I would be confident towing the empty trailer and zero passengers, but thatâs not a recipe for family fun.We're looking into getting a RV as well. The specs on the one we want is
Gross Dry Weight 4450 Lbs.
Hitch Dry Weight 440 Lbs.
Axle Weight 4010 Lbs.
Cargo Carrying Capacity 1750 Lbs.
GVWR 6200 Lbs.
Making sure this won't be a problem.
