How many people do you believe actually look at cargo capacity in terms of weight when they buy? My guess would be folks look at the size of storage compartments and not the weight limitations. Heck, I can't tell you how much my Weber Q weights but I can tell you it fits nicely in storage bin 3 on the passenger's side.

A lot of folks don't pay attention to the towing capacity of a motorhome either. They just hook up their large SUV to a motorhome with a towing capacity of under 4K. To a lot of folks hitch capacity = towing capacity which is wrong, wrong and wrong. The Thor Palazzo, Forest River Legacy and Winnebago Forza are prime examples of this in the DP realm.

It's a fact of life that many folks don't sweat the "small stuff". I would wager 50 percent of RV buyers don't even look at the yellow sticker before making an offer.

Also, in a motorhome that small (25 foot or less) most folks are not going to carry a lot of stuff because of the clutter it will generate inside the coach. Unless the driver and passenger are 300 pounds each traveling with a 100 pound dog 1000 pounds of capacity can be quite a bit if one is selective in what they pack.

Also, I notice on the specs you attached it is listed as CCC and not OCCC so that would require some clarification.

Just my thoughts.
