Detailed Comparison

Shopping for an RV and torn between the 2025 Fleetwood Discovery 36Q and the 2025 Fleetwood Pace Arrow 36U? We've put together a detailed spec comparison to help you decide.

The Fleetwood Discovery 36Q measures 38.0 ft in length at 27,300 lbs, compared to the Fleetwood Pace Arrow 36U's 38.5 ft and 26,100 lbs. GVWR ratings sit at 29,900 lbs and 30,700 lbs respectively.

Capacity-wise, expect to sleep 7 in the Fleetwood Discovery 36Q versus 8 in the Fleetwood Pace Arrow 36U. With 1 and 3 slide-outs respectively, the parked floor plans differ significantly.

Tank capacities are a key off-grid consideration. The Fleetwood Discovery 36Q carries 120 gal of fresh water, 67 gal gray, and 39 gal black. The Fleetwood Pace Arrow 36U offers 61 gal fresh, 51 gal gray, and 41 gal black. The Fleetwood Discovery 36Q has the edge for extended dry camping.

Budget-wise, the Fleetwood Pace Arrow 36U is listed at $220,000 compared to $285,000 for the Fleetwood Discovery 36Q. The $65,000 difference could cover upgrades, accessories, or several seasons of camping.

For family camping trips, the larger floor plan and additional berths make a real difference. For boondocking, the model with superior solar and battery setup will keep you comfortable off the grid longer. If you're going full-time, the larger tanks and more robust build quality matter enormously.
