OP, did not state the trim level of his RAM 2500. Most have 18" or 20" rims and tires, with a 6500 RGAWR. He should be a little under that amount and 800-1000 over his 10K manufacturers GVWR for the truck. The fresh water tank if behind the trailer axles, when full, can actually reduce the pin weight.

Licensing. Arizona has fees for gross weight.


Gross Weight (lbs) Gross Weight Fee
up to 8,000------------$7.50
8,001 to 10,000-------36.00
10,001 to 12,000------63.00
12,001 to 14,000------103.00

OP should pay the $63/year to be legal. Az appears to be similar to Wa state in that they do not care about the manufacturers GVWR and license above it.

From ADOT:
What is a declared gross weight?
Gross weight is the sum of the empty weight in pounds of a motor vehicle combination (power unit and trailer) plus the weight in pounds of the load to be carried on the motor vehicle combination at any point in time. Customers declare the maximum gross weight at which they will operate their vehicle and then pay the corresponding fee as determined by the following table.
