    That is the dry tongue weight. Just make sure you balance out your belongings in there to keep that ratio about even.
    In other words, put your heavier items closer to, or just ahead of the axle so that about 10-20% of the weight winds up on the tow vehicle.

    These discussions remind me of a friend who destroyed his car while towing a boat over the North Carolina mountains. He had just purchased the old boat and was bringing it back to his house, in Atlanta, for restoration. In theory, my friend should have been fine. But, he forgot to drain the water from the boat's hull before embarking on his journey. Doooooh!!!!
