Eloy, Arizona between Tucson and Phoenix has a Travel Centers of America Truck Stop with a "CAT" certified scale. (certified by the State of Arizona). I'd not weighed our Newell so stopped in. The scale operator provided specific instructions and with the overall scale divided into multiple segments which could weigh each axle individually I was able to get the weights of each axle.
I had been told by a previous owner that #1202 2007 Boomer weighed 63,500. That number had recently been brought into question. As it turns out:
Steer-18,140, Drive-23,260, Tag-13,800 totaling=55,200. That was with about 50 gallons of water, 170 gallons of fuel, and loaded for travel.
Now to recalculate the tire pressures based upon the data and tire manufacturer's recommendations.
