FIXED:
Standard+AC+awning 3354 (given)
Heki 20
dually brackets 22
bunk 80
foot rest + extra cushion 10
maggie rack 30
camera + gen tray 20
TOTAL DRY 3536
FLUIDS:
44 gal H2O 380
propane 40
TOTAL TC FLUIDS 431.2
So, TOTAL WET (minus batteries, we have lithium and solar panels added for 309lbs) ~ 3970
ADD your RIGGING:
front bed bumper board 9.4
bedmat 40
Torklift+stableloads 105
pass-through boot 4.8
Timbrens 10
TOTAL RIGGING 169.2
So,
4136
+ batts and other electrical stuff
+ ca. 500lbs personal stuff for 4 people for 2 months
is total wet weight as we have it spec'd. We only took it to the scales once but didn't have a good baseline at the time. Don't know how close we are to manufacturer's weight.
