This is what we got in NM in June 2012:

Finally put the nest on the CAT scales....
#3680 for the axle with the WDH in place
note: no water in TM, loaded with 2 week supply of can goods, bedding and two size 27 deep cycles. One full propane and the other a little over 3/4 full
Two solar panels, #34.

#7580 for the TV with the WDH in place.

note: 2 mtn bikes, 1 full propane bottle, grill, stuff to level the camper, all our clothing. 10x10 awning, 1 axe and 1 splitter both with 3 1/2 #heads. Tool box, about #40's, a third battery and two scrubjays.
1 58 qt cooler jammed with ice, about 30 #, 6 cold drinks and lunch makings.
GCWR = 11260

Posted this in the wrong thread the first time.
We no longer carry the 3rd deep cycle battery but have added a canoe so that weight is basically a wash.
So over all we are a little heavier then Bill....300# on the TM axle.
Maybe next trip out I'll take the time to way the tongue; without the WDH and the TM with it's normal loading the back of the Dodge drops 2 inches with the bed empty.
