mvusse Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 Dry weight means nothing, because by the time it is loaded and the holding tank is full, you're a bunch over. The 4000 pound one will probably be 5000 when loaded, possibly over, so 4900 pounds dry would definitely be too much for an MJ. My 1600 pound pop up is way over 2000 when loaded down with pots, pans, food, clothes, bedding, water, battery, .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WahooSteeler Posted July 11, 2010 Author Share Posted July 11, 2010 Agreed. And dry weight is what it is when it leaves the factory, and for some mfr's that number on the spec sheet is in bare bones form, i.e. no options such as A/C, awning, etc. Should have mentioned that, but that's why over on the "MJ Payload & Towing" thread I've been asking if anyone knew of a different rating if an MJ was 5th wheel equipped. The Takena5 at 3500lbs empty still looks the best match. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WahooSteeler Posted July 11, 2010 Author Share Posted July 11, 2010 couple more under 5k. 20ft'r at 3k lbs and a 23ft at 4k lbs empty. http://www.allencampermfg.com/brochures/Outpost3.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
