Towing it
Check your vehicle. Enter the ratings from your owner’s manual and the door-pillar placard.
Compares your figures with this page’s published GVWR (7,520 lb) and the upper loaded tongue estimate (1,128 lb, a rule of thumb). Your vehicle’s placard and the trailer’s own weight label govern.
Loaded range: 10–15% of GVWR on the tongue, a rule of thumb, not a measurement of this unit. No truck ratings or hitch classes (why; NHTSA, DOT HS 809 433).

04 Notes on this floorplan
What East to West does not publish for the Acclaim 23RDNS
East to West prints no tire size, interior height and sleeping capacity for this model, so none is given. Nothing is filled from a sibling model, a different model year or a dealer listing.
Read the label on the trailer
The weight label every RV trailer carries by law (49 CFR 571.110 and 571.120) governs the towing decision, not this page.
05 How it compares
3,939 lb dry and 4,900 lb GVWR, against this model’s 4,673 lb and 7,520 lb.
5,773 lb dry and 7,575 lb GVWR, against this model’s 4,673 lb and 7,520 lb.
