A Tip For You

A Tip!
Before You Buy That Next RV


Have It Weighed Before You Pay For It!
Safety Tip #1

Weight Safety: Have you weighed your RV? RVSEF data indicates that 51% of RVs exceed one or more safety ratings. Exceeding Gross Vehicle Weight Rating and/or Gross Axle Weight Rating can lead to suspension failures, handling problems, difficulty stopping, and tire failures. These ratings are found on your Safety Certification Label (data plate), located near your drivers seat for a motor home, on the left front of a trailer, and inside the drivers door on a tow vehicle.
