Has anyone who hauls their Jeep on or in a trailer measured their tongue weight? My Winnebago has a limit of 500# hitch tongue weight which, according to the 10% tongue weight to trailer weight recommendation, would limit the total trailer weight with Jeep to approx. 5000#. Does this sound right or am I figuring it incorrectly?
My enclosed trailer weighs approx. 2500# and if I load a Jeep it would weigh approx. 6800#. The 10% rule would suggest a tongue weight of 650# which is more than spec. Any suggestions?
Thanks - Pete
