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
~10,928 lbestimated as towed, for 2 people

dry weight 9,761 lb + fresh water (44 gal, full) 367 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 around12,145 lb (10% margin)
GVWR (the sticker maximum)11,000 lb
Tongue weight, loaded~1,673 lb (15%: high, eats payload)
WHICH TOW VEHICLES IT FITS: 27 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 39RLTS's published weights held steady.

Coachmen (Better tier): Coachmen's large-format destination (park-model-style) trailers built for seasonal/semi-permanent placement, with residential appliances, a steel I-beam frame, enclosed corrugated underbelly and a walk-on roof; too heavy/wide for regular highway towing but well-built for its category.

FINDING ONE

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

OUR TAKE

Only a 2023 snapshot was available (not recaptured in later archives), so treated as a single observed year. Sleeps/bed/slide data not published. Sleeping data added by a later pass: RVingPlanet spec page lists Sleeps 3 and 'Available Beds: King' only -- no bunkhouse or second bed on this floorplan. A general web search suggested a tri-fold sofa also present, but the itemized dealer spec field lists only the one bed. Collected from a census gap: this line had no catalogue record at all. tier, bn and mat are the collecting pass's editorial read, not inherited from siblings. Slide-out count added by a later pass: coachmenrv.com floorplan image alt text (web.archive.org snapshot) states slide-outs/entries for this exact model code, seen in raw HTML
