That said, add fuel, food, drinks, lines, anchor etc, and the V6 will likely be over 3500, but not enough to matter much. Regardless, manufacturer tow ratings, like oil change intervals, are guidelines, not law.

Dave that's right. That model is the Horizon RX which is the "price" model with less features and I tried to find one but no luck so far. The Horizon RS weighs more at 2520. But here is an easier way to compare them from Four Winns. http://www.fourwinns.com/upload/Docu...Facts_1998.pdf Yes I have been doing my research.
