GENERAL INFORMATION
RVIA, has the obligation to disclose the following information, at minimum, to the
purchaser of the motor home:
•
An indication of the contents of the RVIA weight label affixed to the
motor home.
•
A concise explanation of the following items:
•
Vehicle Weight (VW) distribution.
•
Proper weighing techniques to be used to weigh
the vehicle.
•
Specific definitions for the following terminology:
•
Gross Vehicle-Weight Rating (GVWR)
– This is the maximum
permissible weight of the motor home when it is fully loaded.
•
Unloaded Vehicle Weight (UVW)
– This is the weight of the
motor home, as built at the factory, with full fuel, engine oil, and coolants. The UVW does not
include cargo, fresh water, LP gas, or any dealer-installed accessories.
•
Cargo-Carrying Capacity (CCC)
– This is the maximum weight of all occupants including the driver,
personal belongings, food, fresh water, waste water, LP gas, tools, tongue weight of towed vehicle
[if any], dealer-installed accessories, and the like. The CCC is equal to or less than the GVWR minus
the UVW.
•
Gross Combination-Weight Rating (GCWR)
– This is the value specified by the chassis
manufacturer as the maximum allowable loaded weight of the motor home with a towed trailer
and/or vehicle [if any].
•
Sleeping-Capacity Weight Rating (SCWR)
– This is the maximum weight capacity of the combined
number of persons (i.e., number of people multiplied by 154 pounds per person) permitted to
sleep within the vehicle.
•
Gross Axle-Weight Rating (GAWR)
– This is the maximum allowable weight for a single-axle
system, as measured at the tire-ground interfaces. The GAWR considers the weakest link in the
tire, wheel, brakes, hubs, axle, springs, and attaching parts. To illustrate, if the axle is rated at
15,000 pounds and the tires are rated at 3,200 pounds each as a dual installation; then the
maximum GAWR would be 12,800 pounds for a four-tire vehicle
•
Towing Guidelines – Specific weighing instructions and guidelines are furnished in the Owner’s
Manual (see below for a general overview and also in Chapter 2 for more specific details).
