I think I just hit paydirt on my weight distribution issue....

In part, the NHTSA states that..."This most recent safety campaign underscores what appears to be an industry-wide problem: RV manufacturers under-rating the axle weight of their vehicles"

See .... http://www.safetyresearch.net/Library/SRS054.pdf (http://www.safetyresearch.net/Library/SRS054.pdf)

Boy, a person really has to dig to find this stuff, but it's out there...

It sure looks like Country Coach was totally lost on this problem. It doesn't surprise me at all and I expect several others were in the same boat.

For some time I have felt that RV standards for North America are long overdue.
