She must be a bit heavier than Travato. The Winnebago's tow capacity is 3500lbs. So if she is heavier, and you can load more stuff due to all those cabinets, then expect to get slightly less fuel economy with the Pleasure-Way. How much is anyone's guess.
Am a bit surprised by the width figure. The body should be 6'9", so that means that each mirror sticks out 8 3/4" That's seems like a lot. At least you have power folding mirrors on the Promaster.
The big class A's must be 8'6" on the body plus the mirror width? I thought you were restricted to 102" total. I can't believe that if the big A's are 102" total, and the Promasters are only 3 1/2" narrower???? Confused.
UPDATE: I'll answer my own question after a wee bit of googling.
State requirements vary from 8' to 9'. Most are 8' 6". Federal law is 8' 6" plus 5" for mirrors, etc. So are you legal on the interstates, but illegal on state roads? Crazy!
