WHAT ONE COSTS
$16,400est. used (2016, 10 yr old)

HOW IT'S BUILT: 4/5
WallsLaminated fiberglass
FrameAluminum
RoofWalk-on
UnderbellyEnclosed

KZ (Mixed tier): KZ's toy hauler line (Thor Industries), sold as Sportsmen Sportster through 2016, Sportster/Sportster 100 from 2017, and Sportster X since 2025. Construction is mid-pack for the segment — aluminum-framed laminated fiberglass walls, a 3/8" walk-on roof and a heated, enclosed underbelly — with a Tuff Ply garage floor and diamond-plate wall protection that hold up well. KZ's assembly quality is uneven unit to unit, which is why it lands 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; 10 years out of production. Estimated from build volume and production span, not a count of live listings.

OUR TAKE

12-foot garage with 96" of cargo height; KZ never published an A/C exterior height for this plan.
