With all the info on this thread I figure this is a good place to make a request related to weight and inflation.
Over the past few years the requirements for vehicle load capability and tire inflation have evolved. I am looking for examples of the label on your RV.
Many Trailers have a sticker with tire size and inflation minimums on the side of the trailer. Motorhomes may have a sticker near the drivers seat or a sheet with the load measurements made by the manufacturer on what looks like a sheet of paper or a smaller label.
Sometimes this lable is on the inside of the entrance door. Sometimes it seems like the manufacturer made an effort to hide the label in a place you would never think to look such as inside a closet.
My request is that you try and capture a picture of the information on the lable noting what your loads are and what the tire inflation minimum is supposed to be based on information from the manufacturer.
I would also request you get a shot of the location of the information sheet. I know that in My Coachmen the data sheet is glued to the inside wall of the closet. In my case the manufacturer provided the actual load on each corner based on what the RV weighed when it left the factory. I have seen examples where the manufacturer didn't follow the requirement and the data sheet showes 0 pounds load empty.
