this is the unit - 2004 Foretravel 3820 U320 | Southaven RV & Marine They still have it. When they were finally able to get me the capacity sticker, my heart sank a bit. What's odd is the sticker indicates a 2003 manufacture, the model year officially is listed as 2004, and the vin decoder states 2005. It has all the makings of an 18k unit, but if I ever found myself across the table from an ambulance chaser with my stacker, I'd probably be in the wrong. Wish I had bought that overpriced unit on fb marketplace now :-\

By "sticker", do you mean the build number/weight plate by the driver's left knee? 

It's very common for a vehicle to be built during the year prior to model year (note how many 2025 vehicles and coaches are already out there for sale).  Now why the VIN decoder you've looked at shows yet a newer year is odd.

To be absolutely sure, contact Foretravel with the 4 digit build number (a 2004/5 is likely 62xx or 63xx.  The build number is contained in the ID plate Foretravel Model Code  Foretravel can tell you for sure what that specific coach's hitch is rated for.
