Rosemary, I can understand your concern on the
weight of the 22 ft
Oliver. If you wanted to cut down on the 4200 dry
weight you could drop some of the options and standards in this unit. I believe they included the
weight of the Sat.TV as original equipment when it was weighed. It is now listed as a option. You could also delete the air conditioner along with the auto jacks and the
awning if you really wanted to save on weight. A little drastic but it could be done This is a beautiful unit which was well designed and I believe a lot of consideration was given to the balance and weight distribution when towing. We visited the factory this
fall and was really impressed. Quite a bit of money,but take into consideration the resale when you want to move on. Jerry
