36bhq Windows

Hello all!

I'm having trouble telling from photos if the windows in the 36bhq are tinted or not.... This is a must for me, at the very least I would have to diy if not.

Thanks!

Do you have any problems with pin weight and going over payload? Man I would love it if I could go with a 3/4 ton instead of 1 ton. What’s your pin weight with your trailer loaded? I know the 2019 model is about 2,100lbs dry.

weights

More info than you want but here's how my weights break down:


Truck front GAWR 5200
rear GAWR 6200
GVWR 10000
tire weight rating 3195 per corner, 6390 per axle
Max trailer 17,100
max GCWR 24500
Sabre GVWR 14225

Weights when loaded with firewood front truck box, full of water, full of fuel, two adults and two kids in truck.

Steers 5060
Drives 6700
Trailer 11260
Total 23020

Standard bed, Curt 16k fixed hitch, no issues turning, plenty of clearance. I have a set of Timbrens in the rear. Without them the truck was close to level front to back, with the Timbrens the rear is about 1" higher than front. I've pulled the camper from Iowa to the Black Hills and Kansas City for my furthest trips and everywhere in between.

As you can see I'm a little bit over the truck's ratings for a 3/4 ton. I believe you would also be a little over a SRW 3500 ratings assuming a GVWR of 11500.

I carry a lot of firewood, fill up the front of the box. Guessing without the wood, I'd be within specs.
