I still believe that the 'new math' is using pin or hitch weight to make their RV's look better to perspective buyers.

Thus all of the "Can I tow this 5'ver with my 1/2-ton truck?".

In storage I only have my front landing gear down...

Less pathways for the rodents to get in.
Hey John ... so the sticker on my 5th wheel showing UVW is someway adjusted to remove weight from what it actually weights?? some kind of hitch weight + - times multiple divided by = new math # .... more math magic I pulled 28' lawn trailer if I loaded 3 1000lbs mowers behind the axles and nothing in the nose the hitch would almost float removing payload from my truck?? Wait there's more, so I add 200lbs to my rear rack and fill my 60 gallon fresh water tank (also all the way in the rear behind the axles) that is 480lbs total of 680lbs how much payload did I just remove from my truck ... there must be some new math that will tell me .... I am 1500lbs under my max tow and as with most of us out of payload, did I just fix my payload problem now that is math magic... reading this thread I would say we may never know for sure! Disclaimer these new math numbers may be fictional ... do your own research ...
