[VAC] Re: what will I need to pull it?



Jaimie,

Our 31' grosses out at 7100#.  I think that the adjustment factor is 140#/foot.
That should get you quite close for planning purposes.  I'm not sure if the law
went back as far as 1970, but by '75 they were putting weight labels on the
street side front of the coach.  The figure you want is the GVWR.  Also,
GVWR-GAWR= Tongue load. (Where GVWR=gross vehicle weight rating and GAWR=gross
axle weight rating)  You might want to look for this data plate on your rig.
