Just FYI I run across a set of weight-in-motion scales when the old bridge
across Pensacola Bay was damaged and the Florida DOT was limiting the weight.
They threw the red light on me but as soon as they saw that I was a motorhome
they switched back to green and let me bypass the "big scales."

Moral of the story: An 80's Wanderlodge is heavy enough that you have to be
careful, but most states, for whatever reason, don't want to mess with RVs.
