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
~2,885 lbestimated as towed, for 2 people

dry weight 1,927 lb + fresh water (19 gal, full) 158 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 around3,210 lb (10% margin)
GVWR (the sticker maximum)3,737 lb
Tongue weight, loaded~355 lb (12%)
Cargo capacity1,810 lb
WHICH TOW VEHICLES IT FITS — 95 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 RL 132's published weights held steady.

    FINDING ONE

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

    THE READ

    Renumbered RL-13 D. Under 8'4" tall and 1,927 lb dry - the one Real-Lite Mini that fits a standard garage door. No hot water or roof A/C unless optioned.
