Found it!

Now I feel dumb!

1. It is a 27k, not an L. K refers to floor plan, an L shaped dinette.

2. The access panel is in the bedroom, above the heater outlet and under the drawer. You need to remove...

This may be here somewhere on the forum.

We are newbies at this.

How do you get to the fresh water valves on a 2016 Thor Windsport 27 L? There is a screen panel in the bedroom at the bottom of...

While Thor states you, your passengers, your stuff, and your tow shouldn’t exceed 5,000 lb, I have seen people towing 4,000 to 6,000 lb cars and trucks on the back of their rv.

I agree. I think if you are overweight and get in an accident, the insurance company will say you were unsafe. Also Thor might say you voided the warranty because you were over weight.

Wow!

I don’t think the weight police will come after us if we are over on the scales. Most weigh station operators won’t know or care. They are after the trucker who said he was hauling 35,000 lb...

Thank you! There are a lot of good ideas I will need to mull over.

The owner of PPL said she uses 2000 lb to estimate weight of stuff and people.

Water weighs 8.34 lb or 8/gallon. “A pint is...

I am now looking for a car that is under 3500 lbs that I can flat tow. Any suggestion?

Or a car rental company that doesn’t perfume their cars.

Ok, l talked to Thor. The GCWR for the Thor Windsport is 23,000 lb.

This means the rv, you, your passengers, your stuff, your food, water, propane, gasoline, and the tow can’t exceed 23,000 lb.

How much can a windsport pull?

I think I started a good discussion. I will call Thor to get their opinion during the work week, and I will post what I learn.

Newbie question

Jim and Roy

If the tow minus the maximum capacity equal 18450, and the rv is 18000, does that mean if I tow the car, the weight of my wife, myself, and our stuff can’t exceed 450 lb?
