Hello everyone, I picked up my 09 Weekend Warrior 2800 WLFSC 2 days ago and before I got it all loaded up I ran to the scale to see what it weighed in it's brand-new empty state.
I have nearly every option, generator, fiberglass etc.
The brochure says 6,800 pounds.
My sticker inside the cabinet says 8,650 pounds!
And get ready for this.....Certified scale weight.... 9,320 pounds!!!!!
Just thought I'd share the info, I had always heard Warrior underrated the trailer weights, but now I know first hand.
Other than that, the trailer is great. Build quality seems to be far better than our last one
Taking it out to the dunes for our maiden shake-down trip with the quads in a few hours.
Later,

9320 with toys or without? You said "loaded up".. I'm just curious with what?
BTW.. I have no doubt they are ALL heavier than stated... My WW is supposed to have an "empty" weight (kitchen cabinet) of like 11,500 pounds. With my junk it it and the two quads... My AXLE weight alone is over 12,000 Woot!

By "loaded" I mean options.
That weight is brand new off the dealers lot with nothing loaded in it. Not even a toothbrush...
My new joke is "Lite"...compared to what? A 40 foot "Full Throttle"??
Because then, I guess it would be light...

If they told you what they really weighed the salesman couldn't tell you they were "half ton towable"

Yeah, the scary thing is they'll probably sell a few of those to people with 1/2 tons like the new Tundra that can supposedly tow 10k pounds, when in reality it's close to that weight sitting there on the dealers lot while someone is looking to buy it.
I figure 100 gallons of water, 70 in fuel, 4 quads, we're looking at 12,500 easy...

Oh, and I just measured the body. 31 feet long, not counting the tongue. Guess both the scales and tape measures are a little off at the factory.

Well, it is not a WW, but before I bought my Raptor I made the dealer weigh it, I forget exactly how much it was off...something like 60 lbs on the pin weight and maybe 100 lbs off on the total weight.
All and all I was impressed with the accuracy of Keystones weights.

Your difference if probably in the options. Most mfgrs don't include the weight of such items as generator, fiberglass sides, etc..,
Just a thought......
Check out the fine print in the brochure, probably metions something about options
As mentioned, model # length is inside dimensions. LOA (Length Over-All) is different.
