Not a stupid question. Weigh it when you can but you will have no problem pulling it to the scales with your Blazer. I tow the outfit in my signature with a 98 Jimmy. No problems whatsoever.

Re: stupid newbie question

take her to a truck stop in the area and put her on the big truck scale.
they are certified true,and they will give you a print out of it.

Take her to the local scrap yard. I'm sure they'll hook you up for a couple of bucks and thier scale are pretty accurate.
