We have a 2010 Forrest River Stealth fb2312 which is the 27' front Bathroom Model. We searched every available model before buying ours. We too were searching for the Largest Toyhauler that our RZR S would fit in and still be within weight limits of our 2010 Chevy Crewcab 1/2 ton truck which had a tow rating just under 10K . We now have a 2012 RZR XP with front and rear bumpers and spare tire mount and still fits with room to spare even with paddle tires /wheels with large offset wheels making total width at 69" x 11' length Not sure of how tall my rzr is but we run 28" tires and keep the shocks cranked up for max ground clearance and clear the rear electric beds with ease. It lists dry weight at 5745 pounds and when we took delivery it weighed just under 6000 pounds with LP / battery and some water in the tank but not full. Quality wise it has been very good. we have pulled this trailer from Houston to colorado twice, all over texas several times ,arkansas 3 times,and many other local trips. Good trailer and on a quality scale I would say about an 8.0. There have been a few issues. Showerpan cracked and had to be replaced just befor the warranty ran out. About a month after the shower pan issue we started to get a soft spot in the bathroom floor just infront of the shower. both the dealer or Forrest river would own up to repairing it. The dealer claims it is from a leaking seal in the front of the trailer. We checked and nothing is leaking. Forrest river claims our TH is out of warranty and we show no record of maintence ???? On seals really ??? Our TH when not being used is stored under cover as we have a spot specially built as an extension on our metal building just for our RV. It probably hasnt seen more than 10 days total in the rain and most water exposure has been fron washing it top to bottom after each road trip. So much for Forrest River Products Standing behind their RV's. So we'll repair it ourselves and move on. I think had we not had a cracked showerpan and everyone deneying the true cause we would be looking at Forrest River 5th wheel toyhaulers right now as we are wanting a larger Toyhauler since we plan to start traveling more extended trips around the country and have already bought a new diesel powerstroke. Other than the warranty issue we have been very happy with our Stealth. Pulled easily with the 1/2 ton even in the colorado mountains. Unfortunte because we would be buying a new Stealth 5th wheel to replace our current Toyhauler.
