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
~7,727 lbestimated as towed, for 2 people

dry weight 6,418 lb + fresh water (61 gal, full) 509 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 around8,590 lb (10% margin)
GVWR (the sticker maximum)11,150 lb
Tongue weight, loaded~1,144 lb (15%)
Cargo capacity4,732 lb
WHICH TOW VEHICLES IT FITS — 44 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 265RTXL's published weights held steady.

FINDING ONE

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