Don't worry..you rarely have a full tank of fuel..keep it around half and thats 45kg saved, plus ditch some fresh water and you will be fine. Millie is longer than previous van so less payload. Well done for highlighting the importance of "weight awareness" - so many people drive around oblivious 😞🙈

New sub here. We bought our van with air suspension which made a big difference to our availablle weight (still scaled it off though to make sure we were legal).<br>I've seen loads of motorhomes which are clearly overweight, but they don't realise that apart from the safety aspect... they would not have insurance cover in the event of an accident. Safe travels, Mick and Cath.

Nice to see someone raising the weight issue. As others have said, it can invalidate your insurance. Changed last year to a 690g ourselves on a 3800kg plate and even specified no drop down bed to save 50kg in available payload. Have a great time and enjoy it all

Hi both, we had our MH weighed, we was just under limit, but like you I hadn't put my clothes in. I was concerned as I know how heavy suit cases are on a 2 week hol🤔. Nice to see you pop up on my phone, happy travels, look forward to seeing your vlogs, sending you best Christmas wishes from Derbyshire 😍

Good.luck to you both and enjoy !, can't help wondering if you had gone lithium rather than 2 gel batteries you may have saved 10kilos odd ?. Anyway all doable - happy travels!
