The 33V has lots of cargo capacity. Mine weighs in at just under 18000lbs with full fuel and propane, leaving 4000lbs for cargo and water.

My post here, was/is only meant as a warning to someone that was/is contemplating purchasing a large gas coach. It was not meant to antagonize any current W22 owners. It was meant as a reply to someone contemplating a "2005 Itasca Suncrusier Workkhorse 8.1" purchase.

I apologize if I offended anyone.

Agree with Tom N only buy the 24,000. We love ours. It now has 41,000 miles on. Ordered new.

Sorry I did not intend to offend anyone with a W22.

Our situation is probably different than most. I have always had to carry a lot of "stuff" if there was a space I would fill it.
We are now full time so I need say no more. Lol

I have a Newmar 38' on the W22 chassis and I have plenty of carry capacity. I have weighed mine with individual wheel weights as we are loaded to leave and still have an extra 1400# before hitting the 22K. Ordinarily I travel with 25 gal. of water and not the 90 capacity. That saves a few 100 #. There are many ways to cut weight.

I may have made a mistake I went and looked at a 2013 Tiffin Allegro 32ac and must say I really liked what I saw... I case I change my mind here about the used one how do these tiffins rate?

Ours was on the W22 and we were never over weight. I did carry about 1/4 tank of water but 3 of us and a big dog traveled across the country 5 times with. Staying within weight limts and without problems. It also had a washer/dryer.

I do not find the CAT scale print out easy to read but it appears the MH is 1,000 pounds BELOW max GVW. AS WEIGHED.

Now that likely means loaded for travel.. That is the same as my motor home by the way (Or rather fairly close to it)

The one I am interested in is the W22 chassis, but is the 33V model so I guess this issue would not apply correct?

Well, I have one on a W22 chassis. Do you suggest I not use it? I can't believe Winnebago would sell an RV that had no CCC? I think some of these comments are a bit alarmist but that's just me.
