2027 Keystone Coleman Light17BX

Keystone publishes three weights for the Coleman Light 17BX: a shipping weight of 2,785 lb, a carrying capacity of 1,215 lb and a hitch weight of 350 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 21 gal fresh, 34 gal gray and 34 gal waste, as Keystone lists them. Fresh water weighs about 8.3 lb per US gallon, so a full fresh tank is roughly 174 lb on the road before anything else is loaded. The tire size Keystone lists is ST205/75R14D.

Against the 9 Coleman Light floorplans profiled here, this one is the 1st by Keystone’s shipping weight, in a range from 2,785 lb (17BX) to 5,925 lb (29BX). 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 Light 17BX. That page carries no model year, so the year comes from the roster page that links it, which lists the Coleman Light 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 17BX differs from the other eight Coleman Light floorplans. Most distinctive first. Each rank counts only the siblings that publish that field, and a figure most of them share is left out.

• Shipping weight (Keystone’s term), 2,785 lb: lightest of nine; next is the 17RX (2,835 lb).
• Length, 20 ft 1 in: shortest of nine; next is the 17RX (20 ft 5 in).
• Carrying capacity (Keystone’s term), 1,215 lb: second-smallest of nine, between the 17RX (1,165 lb) and the 21RX (1,720 lb).
• Hitch weight as Keystone lists it, 350 lb: second-lightest of nine, between the 17RX (305 lb) and the 18RX (515 lb).
• Hitch weight as a share of shipping weight, 12.6%: fourth-largest of nine, between the 26BX (12.4%) and the 18RX and 23TX (12.8%).
• Exterior height, 9 ft 11 in: lowest of nine, level with the 17RX; next are the 18RX, 21RX and five others (10 ft 9 in).
• Fresh tank, 21 gal: smallest of nine, level with the 17RX; next are the 18RX, 21RX and five others (41 gal).
• Sleeping capacity, 5: fifth-smallest of nine, between the 24RX (4) and the 23TX (6).

Next to the 17RX, the nearest heavier floorplan by shipping weight, the 17BX is 50 lb lighter by shipping weight, has 50 lb more carrying capacity, has a hitch weight 45 lb heavier, is 4 in shorter and sleeps two more; the two publish the same exterior height, fresh tank and grey tank.

Coleman Light is one of the four Coleman series Keystone builds, and Keystone lists 9 Coleman Light floorplans for 2027. 9 have a complete Keystone figure set and are profiled here, from 2,785 lb to 5,925 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.

Closest sibling: the Coleman Light 17RX, nearest on the published figures. It differs on 3 of the 5 fields both publish (this plan first): length 20 ft 1 in vs 20 ft 5 in; sleeps 5 vs 3; hitch weight 350 lb vs 305 lb. They match on fresh tank and grey tank.
