What's your "SCALED" weight?

It appears some are guessing what the total weight of their rig is when towing. How many have put the combination on a scale to see actual weights:

My total weight with my truck (see signature) and 28' Jayco 5ver (Model 263) is 15,720 lbs. That is loaded with all fluids and stuff needed.
Steer Axle: 4380 lbs
Drive Axle: 4140 lbs
5ver Axle: 7200 lbs Trailer GVW is 10000 lbs.

Weigh those rigs and show what your actual weights you are pulling.
