On the tongue weight. I recent got a sherline TW scale. Just playing around I found out that my 32BHDS weighs 1200 on the tongue in winter storage mode. So it easily weighs 1600 when we are using it....

Anything strong enough to support a Seneca will be heavy. The plastic levelers will be a joke. Wood blocks will be most practical and cost effective. Custom aluminum ramps would be really nice.
