Keep in mind that the dry weight is without any appliances, A/C installed in the camper. Figure 1-1200 addl pounds above the brochure weight before you add anything.
What? That's a new on one me. My dry weight included all appliances, AC installed. Dry weight typically includes standard factory installed equipment and may or may not include battery and propane tanks.
Never heard that before.

Sorry, I phrased that wrong. I meant to say the brochure weight is always gonna be less than the actual weight. This was told to me by several dealers in addition to me actually observing the differences between the two weights.
Sorry for my confusion.
