The maker never published an MSRP for this floorplan. Unknown is not cheap. Treat any asking price against comparable models, not against zero.

dry weight 15,025 lb + fresh water (75 gal, full) 626 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~2,688 lb (16%)

WHICH TOW VEHICLES IT FITS: 16 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 392MB's published weights changed mid-run. Fifth wheels also need a pickup bed and are held to the fifth-wheel rating where published.

FINDING ONE

Findable: a few listed nationwide most weeks. Why: Palomino is a volume manufacturer. Estimated from build volume and production span, not a count of live listings.

OUR TAKE

The five-slide mid-bunk plan and the only River Ranch that sleeps more than four. At 15,025 lb dry with a 2,455 lb pin it wants a dually or a serious one-ton. Awnings 21' and 15'.
