Weight Distribution

Touring coach's have fresh water and gray water
tanks, a water heater, and storage areas� It gives you
great flexibility in loading. If you want to load down all
the storage compartments, the amount of fluids may
have to be reduced� Distribute your additional cargo as
evenly as possible with the heaviest objects located as
low as possible�
Consider waiting until you are near or reach your
destination to fill the fresh water tank. Even if you're
going to a remote area, 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
additional 83�4 lbs� of cargo�
