WHAT ONE COSTS
$81,500est. used (2027, 1 yr old)

Sticker was $111,025 in 2024. Out of production since 2027, so the used market is the only way to buy one. Estimate assumes a 2027 unit.

WHAT IT WEIGHS BEHIND YOUR TRUCK
~15,736 lbestimated as towed, for 2 people

dry weight 14,152 lb + fresh water (94 gal, full) 784 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~3,920 lb (25%)
Cargo capacity4,848 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 418's published weights held steady. Fifth wheels also need a pickup bed and are held to the fifth-wheel rating where published.
