Highland Ridge Olympia 242RL
dry weight 5,475 lb + fresh water (45 gal, full) 375 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 242RL's published weights held steady.
