Hi all, this probably sounds like a stupid question but I am going to throw it out there anyway!
I have a caravan with a towball weight of say 200kg for example, I realise and understand that this weight must be added into the weight loading for the tow vehicle,
my question..if this weight is transfered to the tow vehicle, can that weight then be subtracted from the total weight of the van? or is this weight "counted twice"
in caculating weights of the van and tow rig?
I would love to be able to subtract the tow ball load off the van weight this would be great or am I just wishfull thinking??
I would really appreciate any comments to assist in clearing away my delema!
Thanks...Cheers Steve.
