WHAT ONE COSTS
price not published

The maker never published an MSRP for this floorplan. Unknown is not cheap — treat any asking price against comparable models, not against zero.

Cargo capacity1,158 lb
WHICH TOW VEHICLES IT FITS — 73 OF 95

Judged the way the app judges: estimated loaded weight against each vehicle's rating less a 10% margin — per model year, because the 17TH's published weights held steady.

Coachmen (Mixed tier): Coachmen's sub-5,000lb Azdel-walled ultra-lite. Aluma-Cage framing with vacuum-bonded dual-Azdel sidewalls, 400W solar and a 15,000 BTU A/C standard on current units — genuinely good bones for the weight class, with Forest River's uneven dealer support as the offsetting risk.

FINDING ONE

Findable — a few listed nationwide most weeks. Why: Coachmen is a volume manufacturer; only one model year. Estimated from build volume and production span — not a count of live listings.

THE READ

The line's only toy hauler — a one-year experiment with a ramp door on a box-tube chassis.
