WHAT ONE COSTS
$40,100est. used (2019, 7 yr old)

WHAT IT WEIGHS BEHIND YOUR TRUCK
~15,179 lbestimated as towed, for 2 people

dry weight 13,495 lb + fresh water (106 gal, full) 884 lb + propane + battery 200 lb + gear for 2 600 lb. Brochure dry weight omits water, propane, batteries and your gear; this estimate doesn't.

Tongue weight, loaded~3,667 lb (24%)
Cargo capacity5,505 lb
WHICH TOW VEHICLES IT FITS: 18 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 387's published weights changed mid-run. Fifth wheels also need a pickup bed and are held to the fifth-wheel rating where published.
