The TV was empty except 3/4 tank of gas. The pad was almost 100% level. I squatted down to take the closer pic so I might have been leaning. :P We will definitely be measuring before we take it out again. WDHes aren't expensive if it turns out we need one. I just don't know why it's so tricky to figure out if we do need one. I guess I thought towing problems would be more obvious when you were doing something wrong. One day I'll look back on this experience and laugh at how dumb I was "in the beginning".
