We have a cab-over camper, Lance, and tow a large enclosed with our toys and we were concerned we were putting too much stress on the hitch extension, truck, or both. This tool out our minds at ease and helped us figure out tongue weight, overall weight, and bed weight. The only complaint I have is the camper exceeds the max scale for payload and so a reading for payload with the camper doesn't help us out, though it would if the camper was less than 3500 lbs. We will be buying one of these for each family member who tows trailers, its so dang handy..

What's included with Haul Gauge?
TONGUE WEIGHT
When bumper towing a trailer, having the correct tongue weight is paramount for highway speed stability. Haul Gauge is less expensive and more effective than most other tongue weight scales. It is also much more convenient to use. The tongue weight feature allows you to verify that your trailer tongue weight is within the 10-15% range that most trailers require to remain stable, and that it is within the vehicle's and the hitch’s rated towing capacities.
PIN WEIGHT
Just as Haul Gauge functions as a tongue weight scale for bumper tow trailers, it also works as a pin weight scale for gooseneck and fifth wheel trailers. Its Pin Weight feature allows you to ensure that the vertical load is within the hitch and vehicle’s rated capacities.
You can also compare the pin weight with the total trailer weight to ensure the trailer is properly loaded (pin weight should be 20-25% of gross trailer weight).
PAYLOAD & CARGO
As you're loading up the vehicle with cargo, equipment, or materials, you can avoid exceeding the payload limits.
The Haul Gauge is much easier to use and more convenient than other vehicle scales. It is helpful for estimating your load and keeping you within the appropriate limits of your vehicle.
WEIGH
NOT AVAILABLE FOR TOYOTA OR VEHICLES OLDER THAN 2008.
The Weigh feature measures gross combined weight (GCW). This includes the vehicle, cargo, passengers and trailer. The Haul Gauge vehicle and trailer weight scale displays the weight within seconds of driving.
Weighing your towing setup provides peace of mind by removing the guesswork. Based on manufacturer’s vehicle towing recommendations, you can easily decide if your vehicle is overloaded. Using the trailer weight calculator, you can know the total weight of the trailer and decide if it is safe to tow.
WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION
Setting up your weight distribution hitch has never been easier. Put away the tape measure, pen, paper and stress – Haul Gauge displays the relative weight on your front, rear and trailer axles to ensure that your weight distribution hitch is set up and adjusted correctly. It is compatible with all weight distribution systems.
