WHAT ONE COSTS

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 2513's published weights held steady.

HOW IT'S BUILT: 3/5

WallsLaminated fiberglass

FrameAluminum

RoofStandard

UnderbellyEnclosed

Forest River (Mixed tier): Forest River's Shockwave travel trailer toy haulers use vacuum-bonded aluminum-framed fiberglass sidewalls, an Alumifoil-insulated enclosed underbelly, and full-width rear garages with front bedrooms, positioned as a mid-market toy hauler line.

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

Sleeping data added by a later pass: RV Corral spec table: Sleeps 6, beds listed as 'Queen bed, 1 bunk'. Weight/length (30', 7,629 lb) exactly match the Sandstorm 2513's manufacturer-published figures, confirming twin nameplate, though RV Corral's own bed-size field says queen where the Sandstorm manufacturer page says king. 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: page text: 'toy hauler that has one entry and zero slide outs'
