Just FYI I weighed my rig loaded for a 4 week trip. There are many variables that affect pin weight. The one I want to shed some light on is the difference that a full tank of fresh water makes. My tank is all the way to the rear, I weighed with tank full pulled off scale emptied tank and reweighed.

A full tank of 50 gallons reduced my pin weight by 320 lbs.
With water 21% and without water 23% of total weight.
A safe estimate to ensure you have enough truck would be 25%.
