As the title asks, I have been searching the web for the factory specs for this make/model,no luck.
Is there a site that has honest numbers? Better yet,is there any owners of this model that have had their unit weighed?
The reason I ask is we just traded in our Sprinter Bunkhouse for this unit and the advertised dry weight was 9600 lbs.
Looking at the tag on the coach tonight GVWR=14,086 lbs..I hope this means dry weight plus cargo.
For what its worth, our 2001 F-250 7-3 PSD pulled this thing wonderfully..

My Cedar Creek 34CKTS has a GVWR of 13,750 and I normally travel at 13,500. My pin weight is 3000+/-.
My Cedar Creek 32TK GVWR 13,990 pin weight on the old 2001 7dot3 is 2000#. Just went across the scales and I'm 60# under combined vehicle weight. Still pulls and stops great. I am not grossed out on the trailer and the truck is 2WD super cab.
