While I don’t condone being overweight I suspect many RVs are over their max allowable on the road. I find it interesting that manufacturers seem to always build on the lowest possible rated chassis. Why not use an E450 instead of the 350 for goodness sake, or an 18,000 lb F53 instead of the 16,000? Lots of coaches leave the factory with less than 2,000lbs of CCC. One thing you can do is travel with your fresh water tank only half full. It’ll save a couple of hundred pounds.
