Advertised empty weight for the 3950 is 14043# and hitch pin weight is 3346#
The actual weight posted on a 2011 unit I looked at was 14697#. What would be the expected hitch pin weight on this unit?
Also, I assume that the following extra weight items must be added to the above 14697 figure:
1) Water - maybe 75 gal @ 8.33# = 625#
2) Propane - 60#
3) Gen and toy gas - 40 gal @ 6# = 240#
4) Battery - 30#
Total above = 954#
Assuming no waste fluids, this would up the total trailer weight to 15651, leaving a cargo carrying capacity of 2349#
My 2 Harleys weigh in at 750# each, leaving a remaining cargo capacity of 849#. This is the maximum weight of all other things I might load into the trailer: clothes, food, tools, etc.
Do these figures make sense?
