The OCCC for a new coach will be on a federally required label, which can be found in the drivers area near, the vehicle certification label. Sales people I've talked with, don't know the label is there.
On edit:
OCCC = GVWR - UVW - propane
UVW is the weight of the motorhme as built at the factory with full fuel, engine oil and coolants
Water and occupants count as cargo; propane does not.
Sources: 49 CFR 571.110 as found on www.law.cornell.edu

all of these new weight ratings (OCCC, UVW, etc.) are, in my opinion, designed to confuse. I prefer to consider weights and weight ratings this way. GVWR minus the actual unloaded weight of the MH (nothing in it that didn't come from the factory or added dealer options) equals the payload. and one needs individual axle weights to determine not only how much payload the MH has but where it is located.
