Hi Doug, what year is it? I have a 2007 and GVWR is 22,000 and GCWR 26,000 on the F=53 chassis. WH is a little higher. Check to see if it has 19.5 or 22.5 rims. The 19.5 rims has less GVWR.

Just a little clarification on DougJr's request. GVWR = Gross Vehicle Weight Rating. This is the maximum laiden weight of the coach, with full fuel/water/LP/passengers and cargo. Doug is asking for the empty weight. Subtracting empty weight from GVWR will provide the maximum Cargo Carrying Capacity (CCC).

Gross Combined Weight Ration (GCWR) is the maximum weight of a fully laiden coach (GVWR) plus it's towing capacity. Subtract GVWR from GCWR and this is the maximum weight of any toad or trailer you might tow.

Ok, Mine had a UVW (Unloaded Vehicle Weight) of 18107. As per the info sheet is the weight of the MH as manufactured at factory with full fuel, engine oil, and coolants.

Fakree's suncruser has a ccc of 3800lb with a gvw rating of 22000lbs -- the sunrise 33v on a workhorse has a 20700lbs if nit weighs the same that leaves a ccc of 2600lbs,gives very little reservewhen loaded ,I think a workhorse is heavier.I know that a workhorse costs more all the dealers say this and ford give more incentives maybe the factory buys a lighter chassis from workhose to be more competive Thanks to all Doug

Winnebago defines CCC as.......

CCC = GVWR - UVW - Full fresh water including water heater - Full LPG - SCWR - dealer install options - towed tongue weight

Fresh water = 8.33 lbs/gal
LP Gas = 4.2 lbs/gal
Fuel = 6 lbs/gal
SCWR = sleeping capacity @ 154 lbs/person
UVW = weight of motorhome as manufactured with full fuel, engine oil and collants

The empty weight (UVW) will be listed on paperwork pasted on the wall in the hanging clothes closet.

If you can get the VIN call Winnebago and they will give you the UVW and the CCC for that VIN.

We bought our coach in Nov 2004. It is pretty standard except it has:

Kingdome, Select Comfort mattress, Micro/Convec oven instead of oven, A/E Auto Awning and spare tire w/wheel.

My first weighin was at a J-Scale in Barstow on our way to Disneyland. I did not record the tank levels. Weight was 19,040 lbs.

Second weight was on our way to the Spring Escapade Mar 2005 in SoCal. Full propane, 1/3 water, 1/2 tank gas, empty holding tanks.
Front=6,560 Rear=12,220, Total=18,780

Third weight Mar 2005 after Escapade, 4 corner by RVSEF. Fuel 7/8, Propane 3/4, Water Full, Holding tanks empty, 2 passengers.
Front=6,525 Rear=12,925 Tttal= 19,450

Fourth weight Aug 2006, this would be on our 3 month summer vacation, as loaded as we get.
Propane 1/2, full water, empty holding tanks, 50 gals gas, 1 passenger.
Front=6,620 Rear=12,940 Total=19,560

Fifth weight Dec 2006, normal loading for monthly campouts. Holding Tanks empty, 3/4 water, 1/4 gas, no passengers.
Front=6,360 Rear=12,760 Total=19,120

We will be at the Escapade in Gillette, WY this summer and if they have the capability to weigh 4-corners we will have it done again.

Our toad weighs 3,160 with 2 Dahon bikes and whatever else we can stuff in it. As far as I know, we have never exceeded our weight ratings.
