SLEEPING CAPACITY WEIGHT RATING
(SCWR)

–The manufacturer’s designated

number of sleeping positions multiplied by
154 pounds (70 kilograms).

TIRE RATINGS -

The MAXIMUM LOAD that

a tire may carry is engraved on the sidewall,
along with a corresponding COLD inflation
pressure. A reduction in inflation pressure
requires a reduction in load rating. Tire
manufacturers publish charts that establish
the load capacity at various inflation
pressures.

TONGUE WEIGHT, TONGUE LOAD,
VERTICAL LOAD (TWR/TLR/VLR)

- Tongue

Weight, Tongue Load, Vertical Load Rating
Different terms for the MAXIMUM VERTICAL
LOAD that can be carried by the hitch
UNLOADED.

UNLOADED VEHICLE WEIGHT (UVW) -

The

WEIGHT of a vehicle as built at the factory
with full fuel, engine (generator) oil and
coolants. It does not include cargo, fresh
water, propane, occupants, or dealer installed
accessories.

WEIGHT & LOAD -

These terms are

generally used interchangeably. For the
purposes of understanding RV applications,
vehicles have WEIGHT, which impart LOADS
to tires, axles and hitches. Scale
measurements taken when weighing are
LOADS carried by the tires. These measured
loads are used to calculate Gross Vehicle
Weight (GVW), Gross Axle Weight (GAW),
Gross Combination Weight (GCW) and hitch
loads.

WINTERIZED

– Refers to a camper that has

been prepared for storage. The water
systems have been drained and RV
antifreeze has been added to protect the
water lines and drains. The low point drains
should be in the open position.
