01 What makes it unique
Keystone publishes three weights for the Arcadia 3260RL: a shipping weight of 11,242 lb, a carrying capacity of 2,258 lb and a hitch weight of 2,210 lb. Those are Keystone’s own terms, and this page keeps them. Keystone does not call the first figure dry or unloaded weight, does not say the hitch figure is measured dry, and publishes no GVWR for any Arcadia floorplan, so none of the three is renamed here and no loaded rating is worked out from them. The trailer’s own federal weight label, inside the door, is the document that carries its UVW, cargo capacity and GVWR.
Tank capacities are 54 gal fresh, 78 gal gray and 48 gal waste, as Keystone lists them. Fresh water weighs about 8.3 lb per US gallon, so a full fresh tank is roughly 448 lb on the road before anything else is loaded. The tire size Keystone lists is ST235/80R16E; a fifth wheel puts its pin load into the truck bed, so it counts against the truck’s payload rather than its tow rating.
Against the 2 Arcadia floorplans profiled here, this one is the 1st by Keystone’s shipping weight, in a range from 11,242 lb (3260RL) to 12,765 lb (3790RO). Every figure in that comparison comes from the same Keystone page type for the same model year, so the comparison inside the series is like for like.
Every number on this page was read on 4 Nov 2026 from Keystone’s own floorplan page for the Arcadia 3260RL. That page carries no model year, so the year comes from the roster page that links it, which lists the Arcadia floorplans under the heading “2027 Floorplans”. Keystone notes that its website reflects the most recent production run and that features and specifications change during the year.
How the 3260RL differs from the other Arcadia floorplan. How these ranks are worked out.
Next to the 3790RO, the nearest heavier floorplan by shipping weight, the 3260RL is 1,523 lb lighter by shipping weight, has 373 lb more carrying capacity, has a hitch weight 440 lb lighter, is 5 ft 3 in shorter and stands 1 in lower; the two publish the same fresh tank, grey tank and sleeping capacity.

Towing it
Can’t check: Keystone publishes no GVWR. A tow check needs the GVWR, the most the trailer may weigh loaded, and Keystone prints none for this floorplan, so this site does not work one out. Read the GVWR on the trailer’s own federal weight label and hold it against your tow vehicle’s ratings.
03 The Arcadia floorplan family
Keystone lists 2 Arcadia floorplans for 2027. 2 have a complete Keystone figure set and no existing page here, and are profiled, from 11,242 lb to 12,765 lb shipping weight; the others are catalogued on this page with the reason against each. Keystone publishes shipping weight, carrying capacity and hitch weight for these trailers, and no GVWR.

04 Notes on this floorplan
What Keystone does not publish for the Arcadia
No GVWR, no unloaded (dry) weight under that name, no dry hitch weight and no exterior width appear on Keystone’s floorplan pages for this series, so those rows read as not published. Nothing is filled from a sibling floorplan, 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). On a Arcadia those figures come from the trailer, not from this page, and they govern the towing decision.
05 How it compares
12,765 lb shipping weight and 1,885 lb carrying capacity, against this plan’s 11,242 lb and 2,258 lb.

11 NHTSA safety record
NHTSA holds 5 recall campaigns and 6 owner complaints (model years 2005 on) against the Arcadia line (a recall and a complaint are not the same thing).
Too few reports to show a pattern. 6 complaints have been filed on this line — not enough to say what fails most often. They cover service brakes and engine.
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 Arcadia line page.
