The weight published on the TM site is, as stated the "dry weight". TM also tells you to add 500-1000 pounds to determine the "towed weight". This is about a minimum, in my opinion - you should about 1000 pounds to determine what your tow weight is likely to be. Yes, you can come in lighter, but few of us ever do.
The "dry weight" on the spec sheet does NOT include any factory options such as air conditioner, awning, battery, or swing tongue, since these are not standard items and you might not buy them.
All of this is shown on the web site, though you do have to be attentive to understand it.
