WHAT ONE COSTS
$35,000est. used (2020, 6 yr old)

Sticker was $56,840 in 2020. Out of production since 2020, so the used market is the only way to buy one. Estimate assumes a 2020 unit.

WHAT IT WEIGHS BEHIND YOUR TRUCK
~11,017 lbestimated as towed, for 2 people

dry weight 9,800 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 around12,245 lb (10% margin)
GVWR (the sticker maximum)12,000 lb
Tongue weight, loaded~1,766 lb (16%)
Cargo capacity2,200 lb
WHICH TOW VEHICLES IT FITS: 23 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 3273MBF's published weights changed mid-run. Fifth wheels also need a pickup bed and are held to the fifth-wheel rating where published.

FINDING ONE

Findable: a few listed nationwide most weeks. Why: Dutchmen is a volume manufacturer. Estimated from build volume and production span, not a count of live listings.

OUR TAKE

Quad-slide mid-bunk layout: kids get their own room between the living area and the bedroom. GVWR derived as dry plus cargo capacity.
