Is there a weight limit on cabover bed?
Recently sold my broken camper to someone (cheap), and found myself another. It's a 2000 Lance Lite, in amazing shape. The lady who sold it to me, said she had a second mattress that I could have. ...

'm just worried about the extra weight of the mattress when bouncing down the highway at 70 mph, wondering if that's an issue?
The overhead lifts like a airfoil at 70 mph as my silly brother in law found out. He just bought a brand new (late '70s) 10'6" 3300 lb dry weight TC and didn't use any type of attachment to the truck. I told him it needs tie downs of some type but didn't want to take the time. He would do it when he got home from his vacation trip. Long story short he made the evening news that day as his never used TC lifted out of the bed at 60 mph into a 25-28 mph head wind. The TC landed on its back end then did end over ends scattering itself over a couple of hundred feet down the expressway.
I'm sure the overhead on all TC's have a weight designed limit but only the TC mfg can tell you what their numbers are. Its not a not a generic number .
