Hello from Calif

I just purchased a used 2008 Lexington 283. I received all the manuals except for the coach. Does anyone know the height? Kinda think this would be important. Thanks

Greg

Welcome. The best bet is to break out a step ladder and a 2x4 and measure it yourself. Paperwork is not always correct, my trailer was a foot shorter than the paper work said its height was... Would not have been good if it was taller.

You should ask on the Lexington sub-forum, since you didn't put Lexington in the title.
That way you'll get responses from other Lexington owners.

Welcome to the forum. Like has been said nothing beats getting out the tape and measuring to the highest point (normally the Acs). The manual gives you the avg from the factory not your actual coach be sure be safe.

Thanks Gectisme, that was exactly what I was looking for. I don't really need the manual as they are generally very generic and I've had a couple class C's in the past as well as trailers. This Lexington is by far the nicest.
