XL refer / XL TV / BDR TV / larger AC / walk on roof / larger fuel tank / slide out / generator / dual batteries.... to just name the ones I can think of off the top of my head.
So what does your sticker say ?

Got the springs mounted on top of the axles today...no more nose high. Just have to figure out how to deal with the steep ramp.
How high are the tops of your bed rails? I have a stock Ford f250 and dont know if I need to flip the axles or not. How much lift did the flip give you? - adams92207Explorer

The slide out adds weight. Upgraded granite looking counter top(heavier than the wood) may add weight. The dinette instead of two chairs. a few differences.
and the walk on roof has 3/8" plywood decking instead of 1/4". This would definately add weight. - adams92207Explorer

After spending some time looking at my rig, the long time owner of the RV repair shop in town said he will be buying one

I did see a scale there and they said they weigh each trailer after it is finished (dry weight) and record that on the sticker.
I pick up my FL28AKLG on Tuesday !!
where is the sticker located with the weight listed ??
Thanks !
The sticker should be by the door handle.
If they are weighing each of these trailers after being built, then we should all have a different weight listed on the sticker..
what are some stickers saying for weight ??
_ - adams92207ExplorerOne more thing, does anybody know if there is a manual extend/retract for the slide in case of failure of electronics or mechanical ram?

I second that. The stickers I have seen are all by the door handle and they all have shown different weights which leads me to believe they are accurate dry weight. Keep in mind with the 136 gallon fresh water tank that is 1100-1200 added pounds if filled just in water weight.
