1977 20ft Argosy Motorhome weight?

[fabofabo]

Does anyone know what is the gross vehicle weight of a 20ft Argo Moho, dry of all liquids?
Additionally,
Would it be safe to tow such vehicle on a lowboy trailer? Considering the height.
I check out Roger's site, but to no avail. Please help.
Could it be towed?

My 74 24 ft. is 9600 lbs., I would GUESS about 9,000 lbs. for a 20 ft. Height is 10' 3" with the Coleman AC on it. I think DOT regs are around 13' 5" for minimum clearance so you would be really close (maybe too close if some patching crew had been a little over productive).

You could tow it no problem if you pulled the drive shaft.

From my 78 MH Owners manual:

20 footer GVWR 11,000 Curb Weight 7,835 Curb weight is with "standard equipment" a full cooling system, and fuel tank.

Thanks.
Curb side weight is that loaded, or is it unloaded?

[thenewkid64]

Curb weight was listed as WITHOUT persons, food, belongings or any optional equipment. Options were considered, AC, the additional entertainment center, TV Antenna, etc.

That clears it up. Thanks, F
