Heartland ElkRidge 34TSRE
Sticker was $53,483 in 2016. Out of production since 2016, so the used market is the only way to buy one. Estimate assumes a 2016 unit.
dry weight 11,200 lb + fresh water (47 gal, full) 392 lb + propane + battery 200 lb + gear for 2 600 lb. Brochure dry weight omits water, propane, batteries and your gear; this estimate doesn't.
Judged the way the app judges: estimated loaded weight against each vehicle's rating less a 10% margin, per model year, because the 34TSRE's published weights held steady. Fifth wheels also need a pickup bed and are held to the fifth-wheel rating where published.
