WHAT ONE COSTS
$61,700est. used (2022, 4 yr old)

~12,385 lbestimated as towed, for 2 people

dry weight 11,043 lb + fresh water (65 gal, full) 542 lb + propane + battery 200 lb + gear for 2 600 lb. Brochure dry weight omits water, propane, batteries and your gear; this estimate doesn't.

GVWR (the sticker maximum)15,500 lb
Tongue weight, loaded~2,378 lb (19%)
Cargo capacity4,409 lb
WHICH TOW VEHICLES IT FITS: 20 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 Traveler 32RS's published weights changed mid-run. Fifth wheels also need a pickup bed and are held to the fifth-wheel rating where published.
