There should be a data plate somewhere in the coach

UVW (Unloaded Vehicle weight) Dry weight/Brochure Published Weight Etc
GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating) Maximum Weight Vehicle is Rated for
GAWR (Gross AXLE Weight Rating) Maximum Weight Axle is Rated for (by RV MFG.)
GCVWR (Gross Combined Vehicle weight Rating) Maximum Weight of Vehicle AND Towed Vehicle Weight

SD Registration.......License Plate
These fees are based on the weight and year of the vehicle.
(GVWR) plus AGE (split schedule 0-9 yrs and 10+ yrs)

Unless things have changed since I registered in SD back in '03, they wanted dry shipping weight.

I suggest the OP call the treasurer's office to verify.

I could not get the unloaded weight but if you can find it you will save money. I had to go to a weigh station and weigh the coach so I paid a bit more than I would have needed to if I had the correct information.

They want dry shipping weight also known as UVW (unloaded vehicle weight)

When we registered our Hurricane they wanted the weight from the manufacturer's certificate. This is typically the GVWR.

Most likely GVWR.
