Dry weight published vs real weight

I don't think the big giant legal post has anything to do with "brochure" weight specs. I doubt there is anything that limits what the manufacturer can say or not say in a brochure. That's just marketing jibber jabber and most brochures have a disclaimer in them stating that basically none of the information contained in the brochure is reliable.

I also doubt the federal weight police spend much time at the local RV dealer weighing the optional stereo or television either.
