When we changed from a motorhome to a caravan last year,we purchased an Ace Award Tristar.The brochure states a personal payload of 132kg.I had a motormover fitted which reduced the payload to 102kg.Yesterday I loaded the van with what items (less food etc)and thought I would need when going abroad, and it was 65kg over weight. The van warranty handbook states a Maximum Technical Permissable Laden Mass (Declared) of 1438kg.
.The handbook also states Maximum Technical Permissable Laden Mass (possible) of 1500kg.Now,I'm like most people I do'nt like to thin ai'm a 'THICKO'but there again I'm not a know all.I tow with a Ford Galaxy, so I can take seats out so as to put extra items in the car. So can someone explain this,Possible mass to me,e.g.can I tow the van with a M.T.P.L.M.of1500kg.Cheers Edward.
