Sean:
have a question which i posted on the forum section which perhaps you could WEIGH in on which has to do with the weight of the propride i purchased. As with all things Airstream there are seemingly as many opinions as RV'ers!! The issue pertains to calculating cargo carrying capacity.
o Dealer said in calculating cargo carrying capacity i have to add the 228 lbs of the propride since it is on the frame when i weigh it
o An AS'r from the forum was kind enought to reply and say that you don't count the hitch (this 180 degree difference in opinion assured me i was dealing with genuine Airstreamers)
o Another thread, if i understood it correctly, implied that you can take off 2/3rds of the hitch weight since it is transferred to the TV
o Yet another thread indicated that you can subtract the weight of the wheels etc.
I would appreciate any input you can provide.
