Bob, it varies with the tank levels but probably in the range of 250 -290.
I used to pay close attention when towing with the VW TDI Sportwagens.
With the T&C I don't worry as much.
Of course the Reese Mini 350 adds some
weight at the hitch point so I would guess somewhere less than 350 total "pin" weight.
My
Scamp is heavier than even Norm's 16 with the changes and reinforced frame, cabinets, bath, sewage maceration pump, heat pump etc.
However I tried to keep as much weight close to the
axle as possible to keep the polar moment of inertia low and pin weight down.
I went from 1 lb cans of lp to the BBQ tank size when I went to the T&C and that 35 lbs added more than anything else. (After the camp we was finished )
