WHAT ONE COSTS
$24,400est. used (2020, 6 yr old)

WHAT IT WEIGHS BEHIND YOUR TRUCK
~7,837 lbestimated as towed, for 2 people

dry weight 6,620 lb + fresh water (50 gal, full) 417 lb + propane + battery 200 lb + gear for 2 600 lb. Brochure dry weight omits water, propane, batteries and your gear; this estimate doesn't.

You want a tow rating around8,710 lb (10% margin)
GVWR (the sticker maximum)9,995 lb
Tongue weight, loaded~900 lb (11%)
WHICH TOW VEHICLES IT FITS: 43 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 27BHSS's published weights changed mid-run.
