| I'm in the market for a new trailer. I'm particularly concerned about WEIGHT, and am having a hard time getting accurate information. Has anyone actually weighted their trailers? How close is do you find it to be to the manufacturer's sticker?I'm trying to find a 2H GN Slant 14-15' box with rear tack but no LQ. in the 4000# range Right now I'm looking at an Exiss 2H. GN slant with a 15' box. Their brochure says this is 3400#. Can I trust that number?Thanks. |

   Location: MD | My 2H GN slant was 3800# before I build it out so I think your label is accurate and about what most 2H GN weigh without any DR manipulation.
