pin weight

Curious what anyones actual pin weight is as compared to what is listed by the manufacturer.

Thank You all

Are you asking what the bare empty pin # is, or, are you asking how it compares to factory specs after you have loaded the rig and ready to go camping?
I never bothered to weigh ours when we first got it. Pin weight when it's pretty well loaded is about 350# more then they advertise.

I weighedmine on the way home from the dealer when new. Actual pin weight was 150 lbs more then the advertised dry pin weight.

Fully loaded (except water) in camp mode with wife, daughter, 2 grands, & 1/2 tank diesel I had 5020 lbs on the steer axle, 5900 on the drive and gross 18,300. I didn't weigh the truck by itself, saved that for another day when it isn't 105 outside. Be interesting to see what the truck weighs... I know it's HEAVY.

Truck weight is listed on the door on the driver's side.

Nope, tag shows GVWR and GAWR but not actual weight. Besides if it did that don't take into consideration the fuel, passengers, toolbox, hitch, options, etc...

Went by the dealer and shipping weight was 6984lbs. Add 2 adults, fuel, tool box, and hitch and I figure I'm close to 8000 on just the truck. Next time I go out I'll find out by doing it right and weighing the entire rig and unhooking and weighing just the truck...
