WHICH TOW VEHICLES IT FITS: 19 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 39DKC's published weights held steady.

UnderbellyOpen

Forest River (Mixed tier): Value-tier Forest River destination-trailer/toy-hauler line built on tongue-and-groove plywood flooring and a Tufflex PVC seamless roof membrane over stick-and-tin sidewalls (fiberglass/gel-coat and Black Label trim offered as upgrades); several 2026 floorplans still show TBD specs at publication and no page states an enclosed underbelly.

FINDING ONE

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

OUR TAKE

A Black Label variant exists on this page with specs listed as TBD. Sleeps count, MSRP, bed sizes not published. Sleeping data added by a later pass: RVingPlanet listing description text. 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: floorplan alt text: 'has two entries and four slide outs'; title matches
