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
~9,695 lbestimated as towed, for 2 people

dry weight 8,128 lb + fresh water (92 gal, full) 767 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 around10,775 lb (10% margin)
GVWR (the sticker maximum)11,000 lb
Tongue weight, loaded~1,410 lb (15%)
Cargo capacity3,066 lb
WHICH TOW VEHICLES IT FITS — 33 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 2905's published weights held steady.

Dutchmen (Mixed tier): Rubicon

YEAR BY YEAR — WHAT CHANGED
  • 2016Introduced

FINDING ONE

Findable — a few listed nationwide most weeks. Why: Dutchmen is a volume manufacturer; only 2 model years. Estimated from build volume and production span — not a count of live listings.

THE READ

15-foot garage without a slide, lighter and cheaper to tow than the 2900. GVWR derived as shipping weight plus carrying capacity.
