Donzi posts the weights of the 16C and 18c at 2500 pounds and 2700 pounds respectively. Do you think these weights are correct.
The reason I am asking is that out west we are allowed to tow two vehicles at once. I have a 2004 F-350 turbo diesel and routinely tow two vehicles. I pull an Starcraft 13ft pop up camper. I welded a hitch on the bumber of that and pull my jet boat, rafts, snow mobiles, etc... It is pretty funny watching it going down the road. It is also effective for taking the rafts and pop up camper to a river for camping and fishing for the weekend for example.
I tried towing my 16C this summer in the configuration after beefing up the hitch and it was able to tow fine as long as you didn't get to heavy in the gas pedal (over 60 it starts to snake a little). As I am looking for an 18, was wondering if it is only 200 pounds heavier than the 16 so I can still "triple tow".
