I know that is how mine is loaded, it tows great (always have about 1/3 in fresh water tank when travelling) as well. There is so much storage in the rear storage compartments it begs the question why you would load up the truck which usually leads to the ride getting bouncy.. In regard to pin weights it usually comes down to it is what it is however these rear den models allow you to adjust for best ride...... Just sayin
Be extremely careful if you try this. Overload the rear and you will have tail wag and unit will become very unstable and dangerous. I trucked for 20 years and have seen it many times.
