Most manufacturers don’t list their Unloaded Vehicle Weight, so it was great they did in this case.

Without slide = 10,100 pounds

With slide = 10,624 pounds


All other specs are the same down to chassis, dimensions, holding tanks, etc.

The motorhome without slide has a slightly longer dinette and wardrobe because they had to fill the space of the slide walls, usually about 6 inches or so per end. That weight difference should only be a few pounds.

The point is that slides or extra slides can add significant weight on motorhomes in 10,360, 11,000, or even 12,500 pound GVWR chassis. In this particular comparison the CCC is actually excellent for both.

Because both motorhomes are otherwise identical, I’d bet all 524 extra pounds are on driver side, which “may” adversely affect loading on that side in other ways.
