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
~9,557 lbestimated as towed, for 2 people

dry weight 8,340 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.

You want a tow rating around10,620 lb (10% margin)
GVWR (the sticker maximum)9,995 lb
Tongue weight, loaded~1,513 lb (16% — high, eats payload)
WHICH TOW VEHICLES IT FITS — 34 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 27RLTS's published weights held steady.
