Trailer Weight

I weighed my trailer yesterday (Sunday) at a local truck stop, using
their truck scales.

2,040 lbs total. Tongue weight is 180 lbs.

Trailer: 2006 year model Swan
Glider: 1970 LS1-d

Extra stuff in trailer: steel wing stand, aluminum tow out gear, tail
dolly, one folding aluminum chair, plastic bucket, two gallons water,
4 aluminum tie down stakes, some towels, tool box with a couple of
Vice Grips and a couple of screw drivers and an assortment of
collected stuff, two extra wheel chocks, and the spare tire.

That turned out about 300 lbs more than I had expected.

Why do I care? Just want to know when selecting my next tow vehicle
that will replace the 2000 Accord. Guess this leaves out a Mini or a
Miata or the mighty Deux Chevaux (ente, duck, whatever)
