01 What makes it unique
Keystone publishes three weights for the Arcadia Super Lite 294SLRD: a shipping weight of 9,192 lb, a carrying capacity of 1,808 lb and a hitch weight of 1,580 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 Super Lite 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, 60 gal gray and 30 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 ST225/75R15E; 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 5 Arcadia Super Lite floorplans profiled here, this one is the 4th by Keystone’s shipping weight, in a range from 8,074 lb (242SLMD) to 9,278 lb (292SLRL). 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 Super Lite 294SLRD. That page carries no model year, so the year comes from the roster page that links it, which lists the Arcadia Super Lite 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 294SLRD differs from the other four Arcadia Super Lite floorplans. Most distinctive first. How these ranks are worked out.
- Shipping weight (Keystone’s term), 9,192 lb: second-heaviest of five, between the 308SLBH (9,129 lb) and the 292SLRL (9,278 lb).
- Carrying capacity (Keystone’s term), 1,808 lb: second-smallest of five, between the 292SLRL (1,722 lb) and the 242SLMD (1,826 lb).
- Hitch weight as Keystone lists it, 1,580 lb: second-lightest of five, between the 242SLMD (1,385 lb) and the 292SLRL (1,640 lb).
- Hitch weight as a share of shipping weight, 17.2%: smallest of five, level with the 242SLMD; next is the 292SLRL (17.7%).
- Length, 33 ft 1 in: shared with the 292SLRL; of five, two shorter and one longer, nearest the 260SLCL (30 ft 10 in) and the 308SLBH (34 ft 8 in).
- Sleeping capacity, 5: shared with the 242SLMD; of five, one smaller and two larger, nearest the 260SLCL (4) and the 292SLRL (6).
Next to the 308SLBH, the nearest lighter floorplan by shipping weight, the 294SLRD is 63 lb heavier by shipping weight, has 63 lb less carrying capacity, has a hitch weight 240 lb lighter, is 1 ft 7 in shorter and sleeps three fewer; the two publish the same exterior height, fresh tank and grey tank.
Next to the 292SLRL, the nearest heavier floorplan by shipping weight, the 294SLRD is 86 lb lighter by shipping weight, has 86 lb more carrying capacity, has a hitch weight 60 lb lighter and sleeps one fewer; the two publish the same length, exterior height, fresh tank and grey tank.

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 Super Lite floorplan family
Keystone lists 5 Arcadia Super Lite floorplans for 2027. 5 have a complete Keystone figure set and no existing page here, and are profiled, from 8,074 lb to 9,278 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 Super Lite
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 Super Lite those figures come from the trailer, not from this page, and they govern the towing decision.
05 How it compares
9,129 lb shipping weight against this plan’s 9,192 lb (Keystone’s figures, same series, same model year).
9,278 lb shipping weight and 1,722 lb carrying capacity, against this plan’s 9,192 lb and 1,808 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.
