23.2 gallons would be the water capacity. LPG capacity is about 80% of that, allowing for headspace. Thus, when properly filled, it would hold just about exactly 70 liters of LPG, or around 75 pounds, or the equivalent of two and a half 30 lb bottles.
Good--that's what I was guessing after all this.
My 1991 MH brochure says the 28 footer has a 76 lb tank. ( Their 24 and 26 footers had 45 lb tanks it seems)
Mr Wiz says he has a 24 gal tank "or 100#" Not clear on that. I saw some articles where they talked about "100 lb tanks" Perhaps that is more of a nick-name than an actual size?
EDIT- I see the 20ft Born Free MH specs show:
PROPANE CAPACITY
19.5 gallons (80 percent filled)
So I suspect that is the same tank at around 19 US gallons, not sure. That is a big tank for a 20 ft MH, but could be.
Maybe we all have exactly the same size tank and have different ideas of its size? :)
