      I have a 2011 Carriage Cameo 37CKSLS and am the original owner. I just had it painted. Unfortunately, the weight sticker located next to the BigFoot control panel didn’t make it through the paint process. Can anyone take a picture of the weight sticker on their 37CKSLS and share it with me? We are headed to Alaska in a couple of weeks and rumor has it that British Columbia and the Yukon Territory are flagging RV’s into weigh stations. I want to head off any issues before they arise should we hit a weigh station. any help would be appreciated.

        See private message. Photo won’t upload. It is not your year or model, but unless you had a special build almost all were 7k axles and gvwr 15,999, with the extra on the pin

         

        somewhere there is a forum of sales brochures that does have your year/model.  Not sticker but…

        most checks are for weight rating and shape of tires versus limits. What does your trailer registration state for a weight?

          2015 37CKSLS Lifestyle model so it won’t be exactly like yours. I don’t have a picture but from memory 17025. Our actual weight is just over 18000 with about 3000-3500 on the pin depending on the amount of water we are carrying. Our axels and tires are upgraded to 8k Morryde IS and 17.5 rims with commercial trailer tires 215-75R-17.5.

            John,

            California sticker says 14,999 GVRW. Anywhere else the same rig has a 15,000 GVRW rating. Same construction. As I understand it, the rating was reduced to get around the CA requirement for a Class A License to tow an RV over 15,000 lbs. Go figure!!

              John,

              I posted some incorrect info in my last post. The post reads: California sticker says 14,999 GVRW. Anywhere else the same rig has a 15,000 GVRW rating. Same construction. As I understand it, the rating was reduced to get around the CA requirement for a Class A License to tow an RV over 15,000 lbs. Go figure!!

              It should read: California sticker says 14,999 GVRW. Anywhere else the same rig has a 15,999 GVRW rating. Same construction. As I understand it, the rating was reduced to get around the CA requirement for a Class A License to tow an RV over 15,000 lbs. Go figure!!
