01 What makes it unique
The 39MBR is the top of the Avenue range: a ‘MBR’ mid-bedroom plan that puts a dedicated bedroom suite amidships, opening on four slide-outs — the most in the line — in a 41-foot-11 body, sleeping five. It is the heaviest Avenue at 13,400 pounds dry and carries the highest pin, the widest-opening main level in the range and the most residential feel Avenue offers short of stepping up to the luxury Paradigm.
The build is the full Avenue package: 101-inch wide-body construction with Azdel composite sidewalls inside and out, a PVC lifetime-warranty roof, a 16-cubic-foot 12-volt refrigerator, Alliance’s industry-leading tanks, the Performance Running Gear package and the OTG 400-watt solar package, with a king bed and up to three 13,500-BTU air conditioners available on the regular trim. Alliance publishes a 15,995-pound GVWR against the 13,400-pound dry weight — the heaviest dry weight in the line — leaving a 2,595-pound cargo capacity, the tightest in the profiled group, and a 2,486-pound dry pin, the highest in the range, with 98/106/53-gallon tanks. At a starting MSRP around $104,000, with street pricing below placard, the 39MBR is the four-slide flagship Avenue for buyers who want the most open, residential mid-profile coach in the line, towed with a properly rated one-ton truck.

These graphics are generated from the same verified record that builds the table above, and are published under this site’s own licence — nothing here is traced from, or derived from, a manufacturer drawing or photo. Where a figure is not published for this plan, the graphic that would need it is omitted rather than estimated. The full record is in the published dataset.
What it takes to tow this
Built from this floorplan’s verified weights. We publish the trailer side only.
We do not publish tow ratings for specific trucks. A single model can vary by thousands of pounds depending on engine, axle ratio, cab, drivetrain and package — the only authoritative figure is the one on your own door jamb. Loaded pin percentages are industry convention for fifth wheels (15–25% of loaded weight), not a measurement of this unit. Hitch classes are not used here as a rating: SAE J684 covers trailers to 10,000 lb GVWR and does not define Class V, and capacity boundaries differ between manufacturers — read the rating stamped on your hitch. On this plan the convention band’s low end fell below the published dry figure, so the range starts at the published dry weight instead — loaded is never lighter than dry.
03 The Avenue floorplan family
Avenue is Alliance RV's mid-profile fifth wheel — the residential fifth-wheel idea from the luxury Paradigm a step down in height, weight and price, and a cross-shop against Grand Design's Reflection, Keystone's Cougar and Jayco's Eagle. The 2026 line runs to nine floorplans; the six profiled in full are linked below and the three catalogued plans are shown muted. The 39MBR on this page is highlighted.
| Floorplan | Nominal | Sleeps | Notable |
|---|---|---|---|
| 28BH | 32 ft | 6 | Bunkhouse, dual entry, lightest in line |
| 298RL | 34 ft | 4 | Rear living (lighter tier) |
| 33RKS | 34 ft | 4 | Rear kitchen, biggest cargo of its pair |
| 32RLS | 34 ft | 4 | Rear living, three slides |
| 35RKS | 36 ft | 6 | Rear kitchen, sleeps six |
| 332RL | 37 ft | 4 | Rear living (lighter tier) |
| 333BH | 38 ft | 4 | Bunkhouse (lighter tier) |
| 38DBL | 41 ft | 5 | Double/bunk, dual entry, sleeps five |
| 39MBR | 41 ft | 5 | Mid-bedroom, four slides, heaviest |
Avenue is Alliance RV's mid-profile fifth wheel — the residential fifth-wheel idea from the luxury Paradigm a step down in height, weight and price. The 2026 line runs to nine floorplans; the six broadest-appeal layouts are profiled here in full and the remaining three are catalogued from published specifications below. Every Avenue is 101-inch wide-body construction with Azdel composite sidewalls inside and out, a PVC roof with a lifetime warranty, a 16-cubic-foot 12-volt refrigerator (the lighter 28BH carries a 10-cubic-foot unit), Alliance's industry-leading tank sizes, the Performance Running Gear package and an OTG solar package with a 400-watt panel and a 40-amp MPPT controller; a second and third 13,500-BTU air conditioner and a king bed are standard on the regular trim, and a lighter Avenue All-Access value trim (single air conditioner, 200-watt solar, no standard king) is offered alongside it. Hitch weight, GVWR, dry weight and CCC are published per plan and each plan's dry weight plus CCC equals its GVWR exactly. Dry weight is a factory estimate; real loaded pin weights run higher — always weigh the loaded coach and confirm against your truck's payload and rear-axle ratings.
04 What owners & reviewers report
Mid-bedroom suite, four slides
An ‘MBR’ dedicated bedroom amidships on four slide-outs — the widest-opening main level and most residential Avenue layout.
Heaviest Avenue, highest pin
At 13,400 pounds dry and a 2,486-pound pin it is the heaviest plan in the line with the highest pin — watch the tow rating closely.
Tightest cargo margin in the profiled group
Its 2,595-pound CCC is the smallest of the profiled plans — load thoughtfully against the four-slide layout’s weight.
Match a one-ton truck
A 15,995-pound-GVWR fifth wheel with a 2,486-pound pin — confirm a properly rated one-ton truck’s payload and rear-axle rating.
05 How it compares
The luxury full-profile Paradigm — a taller, heavier residential coach on 8,000-pound axles for buyers stepping up from mid-profile.
The top mid-profile fifth wheels — the widest-opening, most residential layouts in the tier.
The other 42-foot Avenue — a dual-entry double/bunk family layout instead of the mid-bedroom suite.
06 Loading it for a trip
Fresh water is the single biggest line in this floorplan’s load plan. A full 98-gallon tank is about 31% of the 2,595-pound cargo capacity — enough that whether you tow with water aboard is a real decision on the 39MBR rather than a detail.
| Weight budget | Figure | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Cargo capacity as published (CCC) | 2,595 lb | Everything you add: gear, water, propane, batteries, food, people’s belongings. |
| Fresh tank filled (98 gal × 8.34 lb) | −817 lb | Water is the heaviest thing most owners add, and it is added first. |
| Cargo budget left with a full fresh tank | 1,778 lb | 31% of this plan’s capacity is spent before a single bag is loaded. |
| Per sleeping position, water aboard | 356 lb | A rough share of what is left across the 5 berths this plan sleeps. |
The published dry pin weight of 2,486 pounds is 19% of this floorplan’s 13,400-pound dry weight. Fifth-wheel pin weight rides in the bed of the truck, so it comes off payload rather than off tow rating — and it rises with the trailer as you load it, not in proportion to what you put over the axles.
Nothing above changes the ceiling. Loaded to its 15,995-pound GVWR the 39MBR is towing 2,595 pounds more than its 13,400-pound dry figure, and that is the number your vehicle has to be rated for — not the brochure weight.
Tank balance is generous here: 98 gallons of fresh against 106 grey and 53 black, so waste capacity keeps pace with supply and the fresh tank is the constraint that ends a dry stay.
07 Where this floorplan sits
Of the 6 Avenue floorplans profiled here, the 39MBR carries the highest GVWR at 15,995 pounds. It is the top of the line by weight, which makes tow-vehicle capability the first thing to settle rather than the last.
Either side of it in the same line: Avenue 38DBL matches it exactly at 15,995 lb GVWR.
1 other Avenue plan shares this floorplan’s 15,995 lb GVWR, so the ranking above separates plans that tow to the same ceiling. On a shared chassis the figure that actually differs between them is cargo capacity and where the weight sits, not the rating.
| Comparable fifth wheels | GVWR (lb) | Dry (lb) | Sleeps | Length |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 39MBR | 15,995 | 13,400 | 5 | 41 ft 11 in |
| Bighorn 31RL | 16,000 | 13,060 | 4 | 36 ft 0 in |
| North Point 310RLTS | 16,000 | 13,375 | 4 | 36 ft 0 in |
| Paradigm 295MK | 16,000 | 12,567 | 4 | 33 ft 3 in |
| Sandpiper 3900HBLR | 16,085 | 13,284 | 4 | 42 ft 9 in |
| Sierra 3900HBLR | 16,085 | 13,284 | — | 42 ft 9 in |
| Cedar Creek 290RL | 16,095 | 12,254 | 4 | 34 ft 7 in |
Against the 39MBR: the Bighorn 31RL is 5 lb heavier and 6 ft shorter and sleeps 1 fewer; the North Point 310RLTS is 5 lb heavier and 6 ft shorter and sleeps 1 fewer; the Paradigm 295MK is 5 lb heavier and 9 ft shorter and sleeps 1 fewer. Those are differences in the published numbers only — what they cost, how they are built and how they live are separate questions each of those pages answers on its own terms.
Those are the nearest fifth wheels from other lines by weight — one per line, picked by proximity on that figure and nothing else. They are listed so the same tow vehicle can be checked against real alternatives, not because they are equivalent inside; layout, build and price diverge sharply across that group.
For scale, the Avenue floorplans profiled here run 8,518 to 13,400 pounds dry and 33 to 42 feet of exterior length across 6 plans. Where a floorplan falls in that spread usually says more about which vehicle can tow it, and which site it fits, than the layout name does.

08 Common questions about the 39MBR
How much does the 39MBR weigh?
It leaves the factory at 13,400 pounds dry, and its manufacturer-set loaded ceiling (GVWR) is 15,995 pounds. Real towing weight lands between the two and depends entirely on what you load. Use the GVWR when matching a tow vehicle; the dry figure is only useful for comparing floorplans against each other.
How much can the 39MBR carry?
Cargo carrying capacity is 2,595 pounds. That is the whole budget: water, propane, batteries, gear and everything you bring. Filling the 98-gallon fresh tank uses about 817 pounds of that.
What is the pin weight of the 39MBR?
The published dry pin weight is 2,486 pounds. It is measured empty; loaded, it runs higher, and it comes out of your tow vehicle’s payload rather than its tow rating.
What size tow vehicle does the 39MBR need?
Your vehicle needs a tow rating of at least 15,995 pounds — this floorplan’s GVWR — and enough payload left over for the hitch load, passengers and anything in the bed. This site does not publish tow ratings for specific vehicles, because one truck model varies by thousands of pounds across engine, axle ratio, cab and package. The figure that governs is the payload sticker on your own door jamb.
How many people does the 39MBR sleep?
It is rated to sleep 5. Rated sleeping positions include convertible furniture, so count the beds against how you actually travel rather than against the number.
What are the tank capacities on the 39MBR?
Fresh 98 gallons, grey 106 gallons, black 53 gallons. Tank sizes set how long the floorplan can sit away from hookups, and the smallest of the three is what ends the stay.
How long is the 39MBR?
Exterior length is 41' 11". Measure against your site length and your storage before committing — the exterior figure is the one that has to fit, and it includes the tongue or pin box.
Every figure in these answers is read from this page’s verified specification table. Where the manufacturer publishes nothing, the question is not answered rather than estimated.
09 What this page publishes, and what it does not
This catalog tracks 18 specification fields per floorplan. Named sources publish 16 of them for the 39MBR. The rest are not shown, because the alternative is reading a figure across from a sibling floorplan or from what the segment usually does — and a number nobody published is worth less than an admitted gap.
Not published for this floorplan: interior height, tire specification. If you find one of these in a manufacturer document for this plan, it belongs on this page.
The completeness figure at the foot of this page (95%) measures the same thing on the full field set: it is a measurement of how much this floorplan’s manufacturer publishes, not of how much research went into the page.
How every figure here was sourced and checked is set out on the methodology page.
11 NHTSA safety record
This floorplan belongs to the Avenue line, and NHTSA holds 6 recall campaigns and 4 owner complaints against that line. They are separate records and are not added together — a recall is a manufacturer-confirmed defect with a remedy; a complaint is one owner’s account, which NHTSA does not verify.
Too few reports to show a pattern. 4 complaints have been filed on this line — not enough to say what fails most often. They cover equipment, parking brake, structure and suspension.
Recall coverage is not complete — our harvest of NHTSA’s recall API ran 1,556 queries, of which 0 failed and 242 returned an explicit zero. A line can still be under-reported where NHTSA files a roster under a parent name, or where a match rests on the wording of the recall rather than its model field. Complaints come from the complete bulk file but are unverified and self-selected: a high count tracks how many units a line sold at least as much as how well it was built. Check a specific VIN at NHTSA before you buy. Full tables are on the Avenue line page.
