WHAT ONE COSTS
$40,800est. used (2025, 1 yr old)

WHAT IT WEIGHS BEHIND YOUR TRUCK
~7,725 lbestimated as towed, for 2 people

dry weight 6,558 lb + fresh water (44 gal, full) 367 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 around8,585 lb (10% margin)
GVWR (the sticker maximum)9,542 lb
Tongue weight, loaded~874 lb (11%: low, watch for sway)
Cargo capacity2,952 lb
WHICH TOW VEHICLES IT FITS: 37 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 28.1BH's published weights held steady. Fifth wheels also need a pickup bed and are held to the fifth-wheel rating where published.

UnderbellyEnclosed

Heartland (Mixed tier): Heartland's 2024 value line - Azdel composite walls, aluminium-framed sidewalls, a walkable TPO roof and 190W of standard solar, but it is far too new to have any owner track record and Heartland's QC history is uneven.

FINDING ONE

Findable: a few listed nationwide most weeks. Why: Heartland is a volume manufacturer; only 2 model years. Estimated from build volume and production span, not a count of live listings.

OUR TAKE

87 gal of grey water is the standout number - a bunkhouse you can actually dry-camp in for a long weekend.
