Published weights are a guideline only, our Pinnacles factory label / shipped weight was almost 13,000 lbs

Bet when you put all the goodies on it the actual weights will be a lot higher !!!!!

Well, based on my loading habits (little on the heavy side) and with the goal of staying within specified TV weight limits, I would want at least a 1 ton dually to maximize my TV's payload capacity do to the potentially heavy loaded pin weight of the FW....., but that's just me
