Drove it back from Salt Lake in crosswinds, rain, hail and snow. Suprised how well the 6.7 ISB moves it down the road. It did get tossed around pretty good in the crosswinds though.

I plan to weigh it soon as they told me 110lbs in the tires and the manual says 100. Wife spent all day cleaning and loading it. Lots of xtra cabinet space left and no plans to put anything in em. We have all we need in there. Does Michelin have a site to look for pressures needed for actual weight ?

Not sure about your motorhome but none of mine are 90lbs based on the coach weight loaded.

Be sure to weigh it to determine tire pressure needed. It could dramatically help the blowing around issue. It did on ours ( Fleetwood) the tires were extremely over inflated from the dealer.

Congrats and have fun. Ours is 42' ( with the 6.7 ISB ) and pulls a 4000lb toad just fine. And at 10mpg or more. No problems getting up and passing someone if needed. Not usual though as not too many are traveling 58 or less. :B

Fantastic. Now go over to the TIFFIN forum and join up (if you haven't already). If you have specific Tiffin questions, that's the place to ask.

Enjoy..
