I live in a 2005 Damon Intruder 377w ROOF has no tribble with my 300+ pounds and in fact there has been occasion where I've been up there with another person not far removed from that weight (Say 250).
Ladder..... Came right off the motor home in my hands.. The ladder itself was strong enough (Though I never had a good feeling) the mounts were not.
I replaced it with a pair of custom made J hooks (Made from diamond plate bumper metal) and a shower assist bar (Stainless steel) the J-Hooks are at the top (roof level) bolted into framing lumber, the shower bar at the bottom.
A Convertable Extension/step ladder my dad originally bought at Sears long ago hangs on the hooks. and is bicycle locked to the shower bar.
