I have a Mountaineer that was rated as 2055 lb pin weight. I bought it specifically because my truck was overweight on the total amount by around 400 lb. on my previous trailer (around 2350 lb). However the Mountaineer actually put around 2400 on the pin and I am still overweight. I didn't realize the difference between a 2500 and a 3500 (chevy) was only $1500 -2000 or I would have purchased the 3500 instead of my 2500. I have plenty of power and braking capacity, but am overweight. I worry a bit of getting stopped by Highway Patrol at some point, so would have been much happier with the 3500.
