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.

WHAT IT WEIGHS BEHIND YOUR TRUCK
~10,757 lbestimated as towed, for 2 people

dry weight 9,457 lb + fresh water (60 gal, full) 500 lb + propane + battery 200 lb + gear for 2 600 lb. Brochure dry weight omits water, propane, batteries and your gear; this estimate doesn't.

You want a tow rating around11,955 lb (10% margin)
GVWR (the sticker maximum)11,930 lb
Tongue weight, loaded~2,195 lb (20%)
Cargo capacity2,473 lb
WHICH TOW VEHICLES IT FITS — 25 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 330FBH's published weights held steady. Fifth wheels also need a pickup bed and are held to the fifth-wheel rating where published.

Coachmen (Mixed tier): Coachmen's mid-price fifth wheel, built on a 6X double-Azdel aluminium-cage vacuum-bonded sidewall (R-15+) with a genuine full walk-on roof deck. Dual 13,500 BTU ducted A/C and 200W of solar are standard on current units; QC is typical Forest River volume-plant fare.
