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 37PFL's published weights held steady.

Forest River (Mixed tier): Forest River's destination-trailer spinoff of the value-focused Puma nameplate — residential-style furnishings and large single-family floorplans up to 43ft, built for seasonal/park placement more than frequent highway towing.

FINDING ONE

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

OUR TAKE

Sleeps count not published on manufacturer floorplan or line pages. Sleeping data added by a later pass: Sleeps 5 seen verbatim in raw HTML on both Camper Kingdom and Cedar City RV listing pages (structured 'Sleeps' spec row). 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 image alt text: two entries and three slide outs; title matches 37PFL
