- 2020 MAX TOW MAX TOW MAX TOW, 4.10s w 1583 payload
careful with your payload calculation.... 700 lbs includes passengers and everything you add on. WDH is probably 100 lbs, two adults.... 400. This leaves you with 200 lbs for all year gear in the truck which isn’t much. Also many load their trailer down, especially in the front cargo area, this contributes to tongue weight, which decreases payload even more.Just spouse and I. We think we have settled though on a 4800 lb trailer with a 490 tongue weight from what I've read and gathered that gives me 700lbs for payload and about 1700 lbs before max towing is reached to me this sounds doable but I'm new to the towing game so I could be completely wrong and ignorant
My TT is 6000 dry. The tongue weight off the lot with it empty was almost 900. Adding the batteries and filling the propane tanks really adds more than you think.
My advice is be sure and get an actual tongue weight before you drive off the lot. Axel(s) mounted a little too far backwards will really screw with that 10% tongue rule.
