I thought I understood this but I recently have gotten some different views. My truck has plenty of romm but my trailer is close when loaded. Do you subtract tongue weight from the total load as it is being carried by the to vehicle.
EXample- 7000lb GVWR 2000 lb trailer +5500lb load =7500 which would be overloaded our do you subtract (About 10% or 750lb) which puts me at 6750lb.
I had always calculated load + trailer weight.
