Good luck with the weighing, you state you are minimalist and don't carry much in the TV. In addition you don't have much in the 5er.

So the 5er has a dry weight of 12,935# X 20% = 2,587# for a good dry pin, Keystone states 2,385#.

Minimalist so let's say 1,000# of stuff in the 5er so now the total weight is 13,935 X 20% 2,787# for loaded pin. If you have 6,000# Rear axle rating it will be close, if 265/70-17 tires 3,195# ea. capacity total 6,390#, so likely good there. If an optional larger tire extra margin. You are going to be over the "Magic" 10,000# GVWR for sure. I will state the TV does come stock from the factory with an exhaust brake.

I with the others await the CAT scale weight slip.

my money is that your will be close to 800# to 1,000# over the "Magic" 10,000# GVWR of our Ram 2500. You stated you did a 12 hour run to Colorado, and all was fine, so to continue is your choice.
