There are 10s of thousands of RVs on the road every day; a certain percentage of them will be over somewhere on the mfg figures. Have any of you ever seen a valid report of an RVer being charged with being overloaded and causing an accident? I follow 4 active RV forums and this situation is brought up all the time--almost as much as the Ford/GM/Dodge arguments--and no one has ever been able to come across with a factual instance of an RVer being involved in an accident and having every little piece of his setup being carted off to the scales and being weighed to determine if he was overloaded??? Commercial situations will be much different, but for RVers, it isn't anything to be concerned about unless you are so much over somewhere that it is actually unsafe.
Do you actually think the cops are going to look for 300# overweight on the rear axle?
Please do your best to keep the numbers in line, but don't be so worried that someone will notice that 300# is there.
