Default Empty weight

Hi all, I am considering an 05 Sun voyager 8292, but am worried about the carrying capacity. The 05 brochure says GVW of only 18,000 and the current owner says the unloaded weight is 16,398. Does the unloaded weight include water and fuel, if not I guess my wife and I will have to get down to about 10 pounds each. Also, any thoughts on this model would be appreciated. We will only use it for a couple of trips per year, maybe 6 to 8 weeks total so I don't want to spend a lot on a unit until we see how it goes. This will be are first class A after selling the fiver. Thanks

Default Re: Empty weight

ON my 99 Sun Voyager the claimed weight for the unit is on a sticker on the left outer wall just behind the drivers seat. This may be no longer correct due to modifications, A true weight can be taken for $5 to $10 at the local truck stop.
