Good to know, but based on the 2025 version, that camper is well over the 4,000 lb tow and 400 lb hitch capacity.

I have a '21 Forest River Wolf Pup 16BHS and tow with no problems behind my '23 ecoboost w/4K tow package. Anyone else tow something similar?
This is great to know as I was planning on the same camper. But i was worried it was to heavy. Can you tell me how many miles you've towed this camper & type of terrain? Thanks.

Wow,that 16 foot pod of a camper weighs over a ton more than my 18 foot Springdale? Something doesn't sound right.

That's what I was thinking here... I saw 16 foot and was thinking low to mid 3k lb range. Sure, part is the 2000lb carrying weight, but wow.

But the power won't be the issue... they've got the hybrid pulling 4k.

Don't do it. That hitch weight is going to be way over the Mav's 400 pound hitch weight maximum. That's dry weight before anything is added and it's already over.

Thanks, what I thought. Was curious how much he actually towed that camper.

I have been pulling a 16 ft. Scamp deluxe model for 2 years now without any issues. It weighs 2200 pounds empty and with my gear, it weighs about 2900 pounds.

I tow a 2021 K-Z ESCAPE E181RB (GVWR 4,000 lbs) with my 4k ecoboost. Does pretty well but I wouldn't go any larger. That 400lb hitch weight is most problematic on the Mav, I'm over that by a fair amount for sure. Added airlift bags but plan on trying out a weight distribution hitch in the spring as the front end is a bit lighter than I would hope.
