Methods and systems are provided for estimating weight-related parameter values of a vehicle. The system includes a sensor system, a display device, and a controller configured to, by a processor, receive, from the sensor system, static sensor data sensed while the vehicle is stationary and coupled to a trailer and dynamic sensor data while the vehicle is being driven and not coupled to the trailer, wherein the static sensor data includes a deflection value associated with a suspension system of the vehicle, estimate, while the vehicle is stationary, one or more weight-related parameter values using a suspension model and the static sensor data, determine degradation of the suspension system over time using a suspension sag estimation model and the dynamic sensor data, update the suspension model to accommodate for the degradation of the suspension system, and display the one or more weight-related parameter values on the visual display.
