Does anyone know if the roof on a Classic is strong enough to walk on or sit on? We did a thorough cleaning the other day, but the aluminum roof could use a good scrubbing, noticed that it looks like the aluminum sheeting is just a skin over the frame? Doesnt appear to be a solid plywood or anything under it? Thanks for any input on this  |

Probably thin plywood under the aluminum. It might very well support you, but why risk it? If you want to wash the roof, just stand on a ladder, using a long handled car wash brush. If you have a serious need, such as sealing a roof vent, then get yourself some thin plywood (about 36" X 36" large enough to span truss to truss) That way if you misstep you don't create a divot/ dent in the aluminum.
A very general rule is if the coach didn't come with a ladder, the manufacturer didn't build the roof to be walked on.

I have a 160RBT. My dealer told me DO NOT get on the roof, it won't hold.
