From the O.P.: Here's what I've found so far: The GCWR for the '17 Gemini is: 13,500
The coach weighs 10,360
The Honda CRV 3,400
Total 13,760
Sooo, I'm already over the stated GCWR without including weight of passengers, dogs, food, clothing, etc.etc.
Am I right?? If so, the deal for the Gemini is out.
Probably need to dig in a little further. The answer right now is "we don't have enough information to determine that.
Their website states GROSS VEHICLE WEIGHT is 10,360. I don't see in the specs the UVW (Unloaded Vehicle Weight) or a CCC figure. So, that 10,360 could be very close to actual or well above unloaded weight.

I've posted other requests for information regarding this subject and received good replies. The subject is downsizing from a Class A to a Class C. We're right on the cusp of signing a contract but I have one remaining concern. We're looking at a '17 Thor Gemini. It's on a Ford chassis with a 5 cyl. diesel engine. Now the question: Our toad is a 3200# CRV. Will the 5 cyl. engine be adequate to pull the CRV even on mtn. grades? Most of our travel is in flat-land but occasionally will hit grades in Wesern N.C. / Will appreciate any thoughts or advice regarding this. / Thanks. , Larry

You can look at the GCWR to start with. As long as you are not exceeding GVWR or GCWR, you should be fine.
