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
~7,088 lbestimated as towed, for 2 people

dry weight 5,879 lb + fresh water (49 gal, full) 409 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 around7,880 lb (10% margin)

Tongue weight, loaded~862 lb (12%)
Cargo capacity1,721 lb
WHICH TOW VEHICLES IT FITS — 52 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 275BHS's published weights held steady.

Coachmen (Mixed tier): Vacuum-bonded Azdel walls, a gel-coat fiberglass cap and a heated enclosed underbelly make for a genuinely good spec sheet at the price; Coachmen build consistency is only average, so mixed rather than better.
