    Stock though right? Mines already pushing 3600lb plus without tent on or 4x4
    and i see you have a regular cab. Mines a 4door so a good bit heavier

    Once you get your transfer case in, your low will be much much lower than the standard L on your shifter.

    Ive done the ground tent thing my whole life. Heres why i have a RTT, family of 5. Its that simple. To have to put up a big tent (even a quick pitch) then 5 sleeping bags, 5 sleeping pads(or cots, or 2 air mattesses) and then tear it all down and pack it away the next morning only to continue to do that everyday for during a several day trip :mad::mad:. Me and the are always about to murder each other and the kids just because of that lol. Now the tent opens in 2 mins and the sleeping bags will already be in there. The mattress is way more comfy than the pads or cots. Just makes more sence for my family.

    The RTT was a game changer for us and I don’t think I’ll be going back on the ground. I would like to get one that is quicker open/close eventually, or maybe just build a trailer.

    I can almost sleep naked in my tent when it’s 20 degrees outside and be warm.

    Those were my measured weights on the weight station scales with my body weight subtracted.

    Just one perspective - if you took a passenger/buddy with you who is 200lbs or 300lbs, you wouldn't flinch or worry about it. I don't think 225lbs it too much to worry about. You might just have to adjust your suspension a bit to compensate for the extra front weight.

    I do though lol. When my girlfriend dog and tent are on I tested it to see how the weight was and I could definitely notice a difference
