Interesting point and really not as dramatic as it sounds. Seems like the trend forever has been batteries up front. Sure would be nice if manufacturers could figure out how to build in an area for a bank of batteries behind the axles and move those big lead weights to lower tongue/pin weight. Even if it was underneath the trailer or more of a pass through storage at rear with batteries inside. My freshwater tank is all the way at rear, I'm assuming to lower tongue weight by having all the weight at the rear. Why not batteries too??
