Hi Dutchmen Sport...Great looking Outback ! Big one! How long? what is weight?
How Long: Book says 35'2", my measurement 35'6"
Weight: Books says: shipping: 7447. That's probably about right. Add propane tanks, battery, and camping stuff, easily add up another 1000 - 1200 pounds. Book says carrying capacity 1553 #.
My truck tows like the camper is not even there. I have a good combination right now. With the factory integrated brake controller, the rig stops as one unit. No jerking from the camper at all, not like my last truck that had an after market brake controller.
FYI, the Outback 298RE floor plan has not changed since 2013. The 2016 models put stainless steel appliances in them now, and a second air conditioner over the bed. Must be 50 amp for the 2016 models. Mine is 30 amp / 1 air conditioner.
