I thought I would post about something that annoyed me and I finally changed. On my coach the Weight/Capacity sheet was glued to the inside of the medicine cabinet door. Over a couple of years it started to look like heck. The steam from the shower and some overflowing soap in hot weather had stained the sheet and started to wrinkle it.
I called Monaco and they sent me a new sheet specific to my coach. I made a couple of copies and had one laminated. In my bathroom, there is a cabinet above the toilet that we use for storage of towels and TP. I glued the new laminated sheet to that door and removed the old one from the medicine cabinet door. I used wallpaper remover and then polished the wood.
I know it may sound silly, but it was one of those things that annoyed me everytime I opened the medicine cabinet door. I'm sure others have moved it or thought of moving it, but may not have known that Monaco will send you a new copy.

Doesn't sound silly at all. Sounds like an appropriate solution to a nagging problem.

I will make it even easier for everyone...
Call Monaco Tech Support Phone: (877) 466-6226 with your coach number to get your Weight Capacity Spec sheet...
Tech Support is going to wonder why they are getting an unusually high call volume for these sheets 
Diplomat Don...You do have some simple ideas that all of us can do without much mechanical appitude after all.

Cabinet where he put the sticker...
Laminated Sticker mounted in cabinet...
How'd I do, Don?

Tom...
you need to look at your individual weight capacity sheet. That sheet is unique to your coach. (It is probably inside the medicine cabinet door.) If you are unsure of how to read it ...then post what it says here and someone (Mic?) will decipher and explain to you how to read it.
 Actually it is probably a GREAT idea if you post it here anyway. "GoneFishin" could then decipher and explain to everyone how to read those sheets...and since you are freshly weighed.. you would be perfect! 
How about it Tom?
