- Gulf Stream prints "Dry Weight", "Hitch Weight" and "Net Carrying Capacity" on this page with no unit on the figures (its own line listing states weights in lbs.; tank figures carry no unit). No GVWR is printed, so nothing is checked against one. Page footnote: "Specifications are approximate and subject to change. Check the label in your unit for actual weights and capacities."
