What do you weight in wet?
We figured with what we wanted and eventually growing the family might as well buy new and hopefully only need to do it once so we really like the open layout of it. It truly is just crazy amount of space inside of it with the slide and the three beds....we went to Michigan Nascar last year, had 8 adults in it no problem. As for the weight wet....yeah I have been slacking and haven't gotten numbers yet, My weight on the Durango is 7400lb for a trailer and I know I am pushing my limits on it wet. The trailer is 4775 Dry with a hitch weight of 580. The GVWR of it is 6,500 so i am probably right about there....though i never travel with a full tank of water, i will usually roll with some water in case of a bathroom emergency on the road...
Good info.
Still more than I will be able to tow with my desired TV.

That thing has a ton of sleeping space.
Without a slide for the dinette, do you find that the open floor space is cramped at all?

Those huge hybrids are nice. Don't lose any floor space for beds. It makes them feel huge.

Ahh! I saw these hybrids with the 3 pop-outs. The one that I walked through also had a slide in the dinning area, which really opened the floor plan up in front of the couch.
Great floorplan. Absolutely fantastic.

Wow! That is a big hybrid.
I bet you have tons of space in there for seating and in the galley.
Do you have a floor plan for that model, I really like it. What is the true dry weight?
