| As per page 6 of the NAA owners manual it weights 2550 including oil, water, -less gas. So if you can believe a ford owners manual you have it right from the company that made it and this is not a reprint by the way

| | i estimate fords like that around 2500 dry... you trying to make weight on a 7k trailer or something? if so.. positioning the load over the axles correctly with respect to tounge weigth is also an important factor. and I'd avoid single axle trailers too.. unless you have a 1 ton drw truck

| I have a Dodge Dakota Quad cab and was thinking about a single axle trailer. Why not a single axle trailer unless you have a one ton with duals?

| | ever see a teeter totter? with 1 axle on the trailer.. you have to do a balancing act with the tractor. with a smaller truck, that can become un-fun / un safe, witht he tounge of the drailer dipping down and swinging up, doing the same to the rear of the truck. A HD truck will not experience this near as bad as the 1/2 ton and smaller trucks like rangers and other near 1/2 ton trucks.
