AIRSTREAM 360 XC LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL
DRIVING
WIDE BODY LIMITATIONS
Vehicles with overall body width greater than 96" are known as "wide bodies. Wide body vehicles are
restricted to use on main highways in certain states. A vast majority of states allow 102" body width on all
highways, but wide body width is not allowed on all federal highways in the United States. Your dealer
may be able to furnish more specific information. If you are concerned about vehicle width, we invite you
to consider other fine Thor vehicles offered in the standard 96" width.
LOADING
Below is a sample of the weight information chart provided in all Airstream vehicles. This information can
be found in your vehicle on the back of the first wardrobe door on the curbside of the vehicle about 60" up
from the floor or in one of the galley overhead lockers.
The GROSS COMBINATION WEIGHT RATING on the 360XC motorhome is 31,350 pounds.
*WARNING - Do not exceed the hitch capacity of 500 lb. load and 5000 lb. tow.
The motorhomes have large fluid tanks and lots of storage areas. It gives you great flexibility in loading.
With flexibility comes responsibility. If you want to load down all the storage compartments the amount of
fluids will have to be reduced. Distribute your additional cargo as evenly as possible with the heaviest
objects located as low as possible.
Do you really want to carry 750 pounds of water to a RV park 1,000 miles away and then hook up to a city
water supply? Even if you're going to the "boondocks" you can usually fill your water tank shortly before
entering the area. Just reducing your load by 10 gallons of water lets you carry an awful lot of fishing and
camping gear.
