Wow, you got a chunker. My ride is only 2050kg with a full tank, and the rooftent, and my full size 31" spare.... and a mess of gear. (And if its just the difference in our personal weights, then I must say falco that you carry the extra 300kg very well, i would have never guessed.)

LOL...At the transfer station the scale weights the whole van, not just the axle. I have some extra metal in her but I wouldn't think more than 100lbs. Maybe I should weight her again, maybe it will be different. I had painting tools on board at the time, but they tend not to weight too much..... perhaps it was me!
