weight on the rear axle may be an issue....Our carrying capacity is over 1,900 lbs, but there is no way we could even get close to that much weight distributed properly in our motorhome.
I'll second this as an issue for the 29KS. That big wardrobe in the bedroom that's so nice is entirely behind the rear axle. It's outstanding for space (as far as Class C's go), but you have to be careful about the weight in there. There's also some storage under the queen bed in the bedroom...which is also behind the rear axle.
When we moved from CO to VA, we were pretty loaded down. We didn't exceed the rear axle weight, but we did load it down enough to take quite a bit of weight off the front axle. It wasn't unsafe for the weights we were at, but it definitely would have prevented me from towing a trailer with any significant tongue weight.
I wouldn't let this affect the decision too much, but it's something to keep in mind if there are other considerations.
