Recommended Tongue Weight Scale for 2021 Ram 2500

Question:

Should I use a tongue weight scale? Do you like it? Do you have a brand youd recommend? Its really impractical for me to take my rig out to get the whole thing weighed, and the way its set up I think its possible that my tongue weight may be varying by a lot, depending on how I have the trailer loaded. If I had the tongue weight scale, I could check it every time before I haul and make sure I was happy with the tongue weight. Im an over-thinking worrier. My truck is more than enough truck for my trailer, but the more reassurance I have that things are set up correctly, the more confident I will be driving the thing.

A tongue weight scale is a good tool that can help you make sure your trailer is properly loaded. It is also good to have when determining the best weight distribution hitch for your trailer. Although you don't absolutely have to have one, it certainly can't hurt.

This will make it a quick and easy process with the information readily available, which will give you the reassurance you are looking for. It calculates tongue weight, pin weight, payload, and gross combined weight.
