Jane,
I'm not splitting nickels as it's meaningless. Approximation is plenty close enough as no 2 people will order an RV exactly optioned the same and load it the same. I won't play the game of pinning weights down to a couple hundred lbs one way or the other. If you want to know the exact weights, take it to a truck scale and weigh it. The manufacturer can only give an average or approximate weights in a brochure of the model until the actual RV is completely built and then they can weigh it as built and optioned.
