WHAT ONE COSTS
$46,100est. used (2025, 1 yr old)

WHAT IT WEIGHS BEHIND YOUR TRUCK
12,800 lbno dry weight published: its rating stands in
You want a tow rating around14,225 lb (10% margin)
GVWR (the sticker maximum)12,800 lb
WHICH TOW VEHICLES IT FITS: 19 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 T256's published weights held steady. Fifth wheels also need a pickup bed and are held to the fifth-wheel rating where published.
