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.

dry weight 7,375 lb + fresh water (50 gal, full) 417 lb + propane + battery 200 lb + gear for 2 600 lb. Brochure dry weight omits water, propane, batteries and your gear; this estimate doesn't.

Tongue weight, loaded~862 lb (10%)
Cargo capacity3,525 lb
WHICH TOW VEHICLES IT FITS — 40 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 LT282RKS's published weights held steady.

YEAR BY YEAR — WHAT CHANGED
  • 2016Introduced and dropped after a single model year
FINDING ONE

Findable — a few listed nationwide most weeks. Why: Highland Ridge is a volume manufacturer; only one model year; 10 years out of production. Estimated from build volume and production span — not a count of live listings.

THE READ
