13100
I put my 382 on a scale with a steel trailer and scared the hell out of me, 14700. I pull it fine with an F-250 though. |
$1 dollar!

Dave I did the same thing.... scary when you think about all that weight behind a SRW truck. I towed mine back from the Formula factory w/F250 diesel (800 mls) without any problems. |
13,300... results?

Take a guess. I'll send the closest person a prize package not to exceed $5 value. How about a used Formula beverage cooler? 2000 353, 496's, 1/2 tank gas, anchors, tools, cooler, steel tri-axle trailer. |
Guys, sorry to leave you hanging......weather here in Michigan has been poor every weekend for last month. First cold 2 wkends, then warmer, but quite windy.
I did weigh the Excursion alone, 7240# w/ 1/2 tank. Deducting for myself & toolbox. We'll see what this weekend brings........................... |
Wow - finally a great boating weekend. Hooked up last night & took to scale 1st thing this morning.
RESULTS ARE IN! :flag: Excursion, 1/2 tank, myself, toolbox, 353, trailer, 1/2 tank, tools, pfds, towels, snacks, no coolers (yet) = 19,500# Ex & myself = 7,440# Boat & trailer = 12,060 Then I rolled forward so truck tires were all off the scale but boat was on = 11,220. So I think that means my TW (tounge weight) is 840# or 7% of boat/trailer. I believe this is on the light side of TW rec's, but has pulled great over many miles. Still to do; I'll leave the boat slipped and weigh just the trailer soon. Fill up truck and boat to calculate exact gallons now & weight. Gas weighs how much per gal? Lastly do the math to see who's guess was closest! Dave |
