All FR bunks are typically rated at 300lbs for the bunk. Not sure on the ladder, I would have to check that one.

I’ve been up and down the ladder dozens of times!

Brian can attest that I’m not a small man....

The ladder does seem to have a tad more of a bend now..

I've been reading lately that the trend in "size" across America is growing.

Airlines are the ones complaining most as it's limiting the number of people they can squeeze into some of their older planes. Even with the smaller seat spacing the pilot needs to figure the weight of passengers into his pre-flight routine. Either fewer passengers or less freight.

Upper bunk ratings must have gone up in the last 22 years. My old TT had a limit of 150#. I have grown grandkids that exceed that but they are also close to 6' 5" too.

Thanks Brian and Kenny

Found sticker on ladder
300lbs
Definitely got a slight bend to it and I'm about 300
Will keep an eye on
I'm not going to be up there often

Kenny I got the clear 90
Wish I had one years ago
Definitely lets you know when tank is clean on top of the only way w this rv to connect sewer hose
Dealer gave me navion macerator hose?
Oh well
Thanks all again
Have to say after a weekend of use
All good
Just have to work on the blind

This is my shortest punch list ever
Makes me want to go tour factory and see what they are doing differently

Rv got a lot of attention
No one seemed to know Dynamax had an e450 model w a bunk
