01 What makes it unique
Coachmen lists the 2026 Adrenaline 29 SS at 8,642 lb dry, a GVWR of 12,500 lb and a net carrying capacity of 3,858 lb. It prints no tongue weight for it. Its dry weight plus its carrying capacity comes to exactly its GVWR.
It is 36'-4" long and 12'-4" high. Coachmen prints its tanks as 98 gal fresh, 50 gal grey, 35 gal black.
Among the 6 Adrenaline floorplans Coachmen’s Adrenaline brochure (filed in Coachmen’s /brochures/2026/ folder; the brochure prints no year) lists with a published dry weight, it is number 5 from the lightest, in a range from 5,270 lb (Adrenaline 18 LT) to 9,033 lb (Adrenaline 30 GS). Every figure in that comparison is Coachmen’s, for the same model year.
Every number on this page was read on 6 Nov 2026 from Coachmen’s Adrenaline brochure (filed in Coachmen’s /brochures/2026/ folder; the brochure prints no year); model year 2026 comes from where the maker files it on its own site, not from the document’s text.
How the SS differs from the other five Adrenaline floorplans. Most distinctive first. How these ranks are worked out.
- Cargo capacity as a share of GVWR, 30.9%: smallest of four; next is the KB (31.9%).
- Dry weight, 8,642 lb: second-heaviest of six, between the KB (7,488 lb) and the GS (9,033 lb).
- Cargo capacity, 3,858 lb: second-largest of six, between the Adrenaline 27 LT (3,710 lb) and the Adrenaline 18 LT (3,982 lb).
- Length, 36 ft: second-longest of six, between the Adrenaline 27 LT and KB (32 ft) and the GS (37 ft).
- Grey tank, 50 gal: third-largest of six, between the Adrenaline 18 LT, Adrenaline 27 LT and KB (35 gal) and the GS (65 gal).
- GVWR, 12,500 lb: highest of six, level with the GS; next is the KB (11,000 lb).
- Exterior height, 12 ft: tallest of six, level with the GS and KB; next are the Adrenaline 18 LT, Adrenaline 21 LT and Adrenaline 27 LT (11 ft).
- Interior height, 7 ft 7 in: tallest of six, level with the GS and KB; next are the Adrenaline 18 LT, Adrenaline 21 LT and Adrenaline 27 LT (7 ft 1 in).
Next to the KB, the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the SS is 1,154 lb heavier by dry weight, has a GVWR 1,500 lb higher, has 346 lb more cargo capacity, is 4 ft longer and has a grey tank 15 gal larger; the two publish the same exterior height, interior height, fresh tank and black tank.
Next to the GS, the nearest heavier floorplan by dry weight, the SS is 391 lb lighter by dry weight, has 392 lb more cargo capacity, is 1 ft shorter and has a grey tank 15 gal smaller; the two publish the same GVWR, exterior height, interior height, fresh tank and black tank.

04 Notes on this floorplan
What Coachmen does not publish for the Adrenaline 29 SS
Coachmen prints no tongue weight, tire size, 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
Federal rules put a load-carrying label inside every RV trailer: its unloaded weight with full propane, its cargo carrying capacity and its GVWR (49 CFR 571.110 and 571.120). Those figures come from the trailer itself and govern the towing decision.
05 How it compares
7,488 lb dry and 11,000 lb GVWR, against this model’s 8,642 lb and 12,500 lb.
9,033 lb dry and 12,500 lb GVWR, against this model’s 8,642 lb and 12,500 lb.
06 Loading it for a trip
A full 98-gallon fresh tank is about 813 lb of water (water counts as cargo: 49 CFR 571.120 S10.4.2), 21% of the Adrenaline 29 SS’s 3,858 lb cargo capacity, leaving 3,045 lb. Across 6 Adrenaline floorplans the water share runs 20% to 23%, and 4 give up more than this one. Nearest on that share: Adrenaline 18 LT at 20% and Adrenaline 27 LT at 22%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.120 S10.4.3).
No source publishes a tongue weight for the Adrenaline 29 SS, so its hitch load has to come from a scale ticket taken with the trailer hitched.
07 Where this floorplan sits
Closest sibling: the Adrenaline 30 GS, nearest on the published figures. It differs on 4 of the 7 fields both publish (this plan first): length 36 ft 0 in vs 37 ft 0 in; dry weight 8,642 lb vs 9,033 lb; cargo capacity 3,858 lb vs 3,466 lb; grey tank 50 gal vs 65 gal. They match on GVWR, fresh tank and black tank.

11 NHTSA safety record
NHTSA holds 9 recall campaigns and 1 owner complaint (model years 2005 on) against the Coachmen Adrenaline line (a recall and a complaint are not the same thing).
Too few reports to show a pattern. 1 complaint has been filed on this line — not enough to say what fails most often. It covers electrical system.
Recall coverage here is not complete, and complaints are owners’ unverified reports (how this record is built). Check a specific VIN at NHTSA before you buy. Full tables are on the Coachmen Adrenaline line page.
