01 What makes it unique

Keystone publishes three weights for the Coleman 13S: a shipping weight of 2,795 lb, a carrying capacity of 1,205 lb and a hitch weight of 340 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 Coleman 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 27 gal fresh, 34 gal gray and 18 gal waste, as Keystone lists them. Fresh water weighs about 8.3 lb per US gallon, so a full fresh tank is roughly 224 lb on the road before anything else is loaded. The tire size Keystone lists is ST205/75R14D.

Against the 9 Coleman floorplans profiled here, this one is the 2nd by Keystone’s shipping weight, in a range from 2,483 lb (13R) to 6,094 lb (27B). 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 19 Oct 2026 from Keystone’s own floorplan page for the Coleman 13S. That page carries no model year, so the year comes from the roster page that links it, which lists the Coleman 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 13S differs from the other eleven Coleman floorplans. Most distinctive first. Each rank counts only the siblings that publish that field, and a figure most of them share is left out. Not every one of these pages covers the same model years as this one (2027); each figure is the one its own page prints, so a rank compares pages, not one model year.

  • Shipping weight (Keystone’s term), 2,795 lb: second-lightest of nine, between the 13R (2,483 lb) and the 13T (2,940 lb).
  • Carrying capacity (Keystone’s term), 1,205 lb: second-smallest of nine, between the 13R (1,017 lb) and the 18OG (1,408 lb).
  • Hitch weight as Keystone lists it, 340 lb: second-lightest of nine, between the 13R (336 lb) and the 13T (480 lb).
  • Hitch weight as a share of shipping weight, 12.2%: third-smallest of nine, between the 23B and 27B (11.7%) and the 25B (13.3%).
  • Fresh tank, 27 gal: fourth-smallest of twelve, between the 13T, 17B and 17R (21 gal) and the 13B and 13R (28 gal).
  • Exterior height, 9 ft 7 in: shared with the 18OG; of twelve, one lower and nine taller, nearest the 13R (9 ft 6 in) and the 17B and 17R (9 ft 9 in).
  • Length, 15 ft 11 in: shortest of twelve, level with the 13B, 13R and 13T; next are the 17B and 18OG (20 ft 5 in).
  • Sleeping capacity, 4: shared with the 13B, 13T and 19R; of twelve, two smaller and six larger, nearest the 17R (3) and the 17B and 18OG (5).

Next to the 13R, the nearest lighter floorplan by shipping weight, the 13S is 312 lb heavier by shipping weight, has 188 lb more carrying capacity, has a hitch weight 4 lb heavier, stands 1 in taller, has a fresh tank 1 gal smaller and sleeps two more; the two publish the same length and grey tank.

Next to the 13T, the nearest heavier floorplan by shipping weight, the 13S is 145 lb lighter by shipping weight, has 735 lb less carrying capacity, has a hitch weight 140 lb lighter, stands 8 in lower and has a fresh tank 6 gal larger; the two publish the same length, grey tank and sleeping capacity.

03 The Coleman floorplan family

Coleman is one of the four Coleman series Keystone builds, and Keystone lists 17 Coleman floorplans for 2027. 9 have a complete Keystone figure set and are profiled here, from 2,483 lb to 6,094 lb shipping weight; the others are catalogued below 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 Coleman

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 Coleman those figures come from the trailer, not from this page, and they govern the towing decision.

09 What this page publishes, and what it does not

11 NHTSA safety record

NHTSA holds 11 recall campaigns and 2 owner complaints against the Coleman line. They are counted separately: a recall is a confirmed defect with a remedy, a complaint one owner’s unverified account.

Too few reports to show a pattern. 2 complaints have been filed on this line — not enough to say what fails most often. They cover structure.

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 Coleman line page.
