[QUOTE="Ridge Runner, post: 480654, member: 3775"] Yeah it's totally Nuts, Mine does not make sense either, My truck weighs around 1800kgs and the GCM on the plate says 5700kgs which leaves 3900kgs going spare But when loaded the hand book says about 2510kgs means I can Tow 3190kgs yet the hand book says 2800kgs, 2800kgs + 2510 Kgs is 5310, Yet the Government compliance plate says 5700kgs, Luckily the police go by what is on the compliance plate So 5700kgs it IS. Crazy part is Is the Ball weight being 115kgs which is bugga all really, On a side note you can get Caravans UP Plated so if you want to carry more gear in it you can, But that can be either a Tyre Upgrade or a spring upgrade or Both. Normally this involves taking the caravan back to the people who made it and for a small fee they will fit it with a new compliance plate that lists the new weight specs and possibly the up grades, [/QUOTE]
