Saw a speaker at last weekends Minneapolis RV show mention something around 40% of towed RVs are overweight for their tow vehicle. If that is true I am frightened to be on the road with all these vehicles unable to stop.
Alrighty then...let me try and understand what you are saying.... in your statement you said "mention something" is that cuz your not sure of exactly what the speaker said. Could the speaker have been talking about 40% of the RV'ers being overweight and not the RV, hmmmm. Hard to believe that 40% of all RV's are over loaded. Surely RV'ers are not that stupid.. then again... maybe they are.
Oh and another thought DwnSth...whatever you do, never, never, never ever tow a 5er with a little tiny 1/2 ton. Nothing smaller than a HDV. SHHHH don't tell anybody, but I tow a 5er with itty bitty 150, but what do I know. :?
Actually it was 40% of 5th wheels and a higher number for TTs that I don't recall the exact number so I just threw out the 40%. I'd totally believe it and see it every time I pull into a CG. It's always 1/2 ton owners believing the commercials that their brand of truck is the biggest baddest.
