Lighter pin weight 5th wheel toy haulers

I'm looking for suggestions on lighter pin weight toy haulers (2500-2800#) in the $70-80K msrp range and under 40 ft. I have a 2017 F350 CCSB 6.7 4wd as my tow vehicle. There are so many out there now, but most are too heavy!

Thanks!

Does ATC give you a dollar every time you recommend them?

If u are looking to offset pin weight with toys then don't count on it. I put a 2800lb sand rail in mine. Motor/transaxle/ rear tires/ hubs..... all behind the back axles and my pin weight still goes up.

Do you want a separate garage or not? We went without one so I bought a forest River which is 32 feet long total (model number is 28). There is a 36 foot long one as well. This is the stealth, shockwave, sandstorm model lines. They can be had around 50k fully loaded.

Eclipse has similar toy hauler in the attitude line as well in the same price range and they are the pin weights you are looking for.

This one is a little longer than you want but it is light, 10,650 empty. The website I looked at didn't have a pin weight for it.

yes, unloaded pin weight as we have dirt bikes and atv. Most of that weight should be closer to the tail end or over the axles.

If you make the pin too low of a percentage of total weight it will lead to Chucking and could also cause swaying even a 5er.
If you want a big toy hauler step up to a DRW.

Check out the Voltage Triton line. I don't know what their pin weights are but they're in the price point you mention and don't have stuff like auto leveling and fancier features, so they weigh less. I know the model we looked at that was the same size/layout as what we ended up buying, but was about 1,000lbs less.

So do u wanted a fully loaded pin weight in that range?

My unloaded pin weight is 2680 lbs.
Once I fill water, load up and put my 2800 lb sand rail in, I have a pin weight of 3450lbs.
