In another post someone wondered what the actual weight of a Regency might be. Well, I now know what a 32 foot wide body, full of fuel, full of propane, full of fresh water, most of the things we keep in the coach (there was no food in the cabinets) and the black and gray tanks empty. Me in the coach.
This coach is on a gillig chassis with a 300hp Cat.

-------------------GVWR-----------Actual Weight----Difference
Front Axle---------10,410----------8,580------------1,830
Rear Axle----------19,230---------17,080------------2,150

Total--------------29,640---------25,660------------3,980

I ask the wife if she wanted to ride over with me to see what the total loaded weight of the coach was before we bought tires. I told her it could make a difference in the ply rating we would need. She said don't go there. Confused
