That's the beauty of a TM. Light weight, easy to tow and decent gas mileage to boot.
Have you weighed it?

When I weighed my 2005 TM 2720, it was 3380 pounds on the axle. I did not weigh the tongue, but if the tongue weight is 15 percent of the total, then my TM weighs 3976. That would put you 400 pounds over the TV rating.

Perhaps you take less stuff than I do.

I believe that there is a difference between towing overweight and knowing that you are towing overweight.
