WHAT ONE COSTS
$23,500est. used (2018, 8 yr old)

Sticker was $40,105 in 2017. Out of production since 2018, so the used market is the only way to buy one. Estimate assumes a 2018 unit.

WHAT IT WEIGHS BEHIND YOUR TRUCK
~10,216 lbestimated as towed, for 2 people

dry weight 8,615 lb + fresh water (96 gal, full) 801 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 around11,355 lb (10% margin)
GVWR (the sticker maximum)12,250 lb
Tongue weight, loaded~1,476 lb (14%)
Cargo capacity3,635 lb
WHICH TOW VEHICLES IT FITS: 34 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 T32J's published weights changed mid-run.

FINDING ONE

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

OUR TAKE

Sofa slide instead of a kitchen slide — the highest sleeping count in the Octane range at 8-10.
