2027 Keystone Coleman Light23TX

Keystone publishes three weights for the Coleman Light 23TX: a shipping weight of 4,960 lb, a carrying capacity of 3,540 lb and a hitch weight of 635 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 41 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 340 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 7th 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 23TX. 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 23TX 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.

• Carrying capacity (Keystone’s term), 3,540 lb: largest of nine; next is the 24RX (2,865 lb).
• Hitch weight as Keystone lists it, 635 lb: second-heaviest of nine, between the 26BX (630 lb) and the 29BX (790 lb).
• Shipping weight (Keystone’s term), 4,960 lb: third-heaviest of nine, between the 21RX (4,780 lb) and the 26BX (5,100 lb).
• Length, 27 ft 10 in: fourth-longest of nine, between the 22BX (26 ft 9 in) and the 24RX (28 ft 9 in).
• Sleeping capacity, 6: fourth-largest of nine, between the 17BX (5) and the 22BX (7).
• Hitch weight as a share of shipping weight, 12.8%: shared with the 18RX; of nine, six smaller and one larger, nearest the 17BX (12.6%) and the 29BX (13.3%).

Next to the 21RX, the nearest lighter floorplan by shipping weight, the 23TX is 180 lb heavier by shipping weight, has 1,820 lb more carrying capacity, has a hitch weight 115 lb heavier, is 2 ft 6 in longer, has a grey tank 34 gal smaller and sleeps three more; the two publish the same exterior height and fresh tank.

Next to the 26BX, the nearest heavier floorplan by shipping weight, the 23TX is 140 lb lighter by shipping weight, has 1,640 lb more carrying capacity, has a hitch weight 5 lb heavier, is 2 ft 5 in shorter and sleeps two fewer; 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 26BX, nearest on the published figures. It differs on 3 of the 5 fields both publish (this plan first): length 27 ft 10 in vs 30 ft 3 in; sleeps 6 vs 8; hitch weight 635 lb vs 630 lb. They match on fresh tank and grey tank.
