You just don't understand! Your attitude is exactly why people get in trouble with their weights. I am talking 5er's NOT TT's or Truck campers.
Just got one question: What does the yellow sticker mean?
You see, that must be the part I don't understand. If you could just explain what the yellow sticker says and what it means maybe I could understand.
Or maybe that yellow sticker is like a speed limit sign, doesn't really mean anything. Although the language seems pretty straightforward "The combined Weight of Occupants and Cargo should never exceed _____lbs"
What Cummins12V98 is trying to point out is that the 5'er does not add any additional weight to the front axle. Therefore it's OK for the diesel engine to max. out the FAWR.
I am not a tire and axle rating only guy.
I believe in staying within all the ratings including GVW.
Nevertheless I understand the point he is making.
Thank you!
