WHICH TOW VEHICLES IT FITS: 20 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 35BH's published weights held steady. Fifth wheels also need a pickup bed and are held to the fifth-wheel rating where published.

HOW IT'S BUILT: 5/5
WallsAzdel composite
FrameAluminum
RoofWalk-on
UnderbellyEnclosed

KZ (Mixed tier): Ridgeway is KZ's newest fifth wheel (Thor Industries), launched for 2025 to sit above Durango. The spec sheet is genuinely upper-tier — aluminum-framed laminated sidewalls over Azdel composite on a powder-coated steel I-beam chassis, a walk-on Tufflex PVC roof with a lifetime warranty, heated and enclosed underbelly with in-floor heated PEX, dual 13.5K A/Cs standard and KZ's two-year hitch-to-bumper warranty. It is too new to have an owner track record, and KZ's history of uneven assembly is the reason it sits in the middle rather than at the top.

FINDING ONE

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

OUR TAKE

The bunkhouse: rear queen-over-queen bunks, half bath, outside griddle. Bunk size is from KZ's 'queen size bunks' label rather than a published dimension.
