I carry my 2 extra spares in the front of the bed and 1 propane tank (Full) & 1 tank in the rear for easy access! The trailer tongue has a trailer tool box mounted (approx. 50# full) and 2 group 27 batteries! What couldn't fit in the TrailManor was stowed in the back seat and truck bed!

I have pretty close to the same weights as you.
the significant difference, in my opinion, is that I am 40 pounds heavier than you on the TM axle. At 3500 pounds we hit the limit.
When I was towing with the Chevy 1500HD I was surprised to see how even the weight was spread across all three axles.
Now that I tow with the 2500HD and either a 700 pound ATV in the truck or two motorcycles (400 pounds) I am sure that the ruck axle weights are noticeably higher than they were previously.
