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
11,790 lbno dry weight published — its rating stands in
You want a tow rating around13,100 lb (10% margin)
GVWR (the sticker maximum)11,790 lb
WHICH TOW VEHICLES IT FITS — 20 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 296QBBS's published weights held steady. Fifth wheels also need a pickup bed and are held to the fifth-wheel rating where published.

Patient search — weeks of watching, and probably some travel. Why: Forest River is a volume manufacturer; only one model year; 11 years out of production. Estimated from build volume and production span — not a count of live listings.

THE READ
