If you plan to tow your RV with a tow vehicle
you already own, contact your automotive
dealer to find out your vehicle towing capacity.
If you plan to purchase a new tow vehicle, be
certain to tell your automotive dealer the
GVWR, size and type of RV that you will be
towing (some tow vehicles can be purchased
with an optional tow package). As a minimum
requirement, the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
(GVWR) of your RV must not exceed your tow
vehicle’s towing rating.
Some automotive manufacturers publish
brochures that discuss towing considerations.
Ask your automotive dealer how to obtain a
copy of this information. If applicable, verify if
the brochure ratings are listed “with” or
“without” an optional tow package.

XPLAINED
The 17-digit VIN is the legal identification of
the completed RV and provides information
unique to your camper. It is located on an
exterior frame cross member (usually on the
third or fourth cross member under the
camper, forward of the bumper).
A serial number is needed whenever making
an appointment or ordering replacement parts
from your dealer. The serial number is the last
8-digits of the VIN (in the example shown, the
serial number is 81J70060).

ABELS
Decals and data plates used throughout the
RV aid in its safe and efficient operation;
others give service instructions. Read all
decals, data and instruction plates before
operating your RV. If any decal, data or
instruction plate is painted over, damaged or
removed, it should be replaced.
Keep a record of the 17-digit vehicle
identification number (VIN) and your license
number in the event theft or vandalism
requires you to supply this information to the
authorities.
