Payload Capacity for VS30 Pleasure-Way Ascent TS

Anyone know the payload capacity of this model?

PW seems to be secretive about this stat.

A couple of places said the dry weight was about 7500# and the curb weight at 9050# is on the website for the model. That would leave about 1500# depending on how they rate the dry weight. Usually, it would not include the weight of any options added, gas, water both fresh and waste, propane, and people. Easy to do that match. You also have to make sure you don't go over the rear axle gross rating so a trip to scales would be needed to do that with it loaded to confirm you are good. The rear axle can vary depending on load model 1500,2500,3500 single or dual wheel base van, so you would need to look at the MB sticker on the van itself which will still be there after conversion.

Dry weight *should* include a full tank of gas.

The ontour 2.0 leaves about 1000 lbs, which doesn’t leave much after a water fill.

I was wondering if the Ascent was any better.

They shadow banned my comment about this on social media. So I guess that’s my answer.
