WHAT ONE COSTS
$27,000est. used (2023, 3 yr old)

WHAT IT WEIGHS BEHIND YOUR TRUCK

Tongue weight, loaded~757 lb (11%)
Cargo capacity1,646 lb

Heartland (Mixed tier): Heartland's mid-tier ultra-lite: Azdel-laminated, aluminum-framed walls and a walkable vacuum-bonded roof put it above the stick-and-tin budget class, but Heartland's uneven QC and dealer service keep it out of the top tier.

FINDING ONE

Common: usually several for sale within a day’s drive. Why: Heartland is a volume manufacturer; 13-year production run. Estimated from build volume and production span, not a count of live listings.

OUR TAKE

The couples' North Trail - front bed, rear bath, one slide, genuine Azdel walls. Year matters a lot here: the 2023 cars carry 700 lb more GVWR than everything before them.
