2012 KZCoyote 22CTS

KZ lists the 2012 Coyote 22CTS at 4,060 lb dry, a GVWR of 5,000 lb, a net carrying capacity of 940 lb and a tongue weight of 550 lb. Its dry weight plus its carrying capacity comes to exactly its GVWR.

It is 23' 10" long and 10' 4" high. KZ prints its tanks as 40 gal fresh, 25 gal grey, 25 gal black.

Among the 11 Coyote floorplans KZ’s Coyote brochure (filed in KZ’s 2012 brochure folder; the brochure prints no year) lists with a published dry weight, it is number 7 from the lightest, in a range from 2,890 lb (Coyote 15C) to 4,400 lb (Coyote 23CKS). Every figure in that comparison is KZ’s, for the same model year.

Every number on this page was read on 5 Nov 2026 from KZ’s Coyote brochure (filed in KZ’s 2012 brochure folder; the brochure prints no year); model year 2012 comes from where the maker files it on its own site, not from the document’s text.

How the 22CTS differs from the other ten Coyote floorplans. Most distinctive first. How these ranks are worked out.

• Tongue weight, 550 lb: second-heaviest of eleven, between the 23CKS (530 lb) and the 23CFK (640 lb).
• Tongue weight as a share of dry weight, 13.5%: third-largest of eleven, between the 16C (13.3%) and the 15C (13.8%).
• Dry weight, 4,060 lb: fifth-heaviest of eleven, between the 22CT (3,918 lb) and the 23CFK (4,240 lb).
• Cargo capacity, 940 lb: fifth-smallest of eleven, between the CL180 (825 lb) and the 20C (1,040 lb).
• Cargo capacity as a share of GVWR, 18.8%: fifth-smallest of eleven, between the CL180 (18.3%) and the CL232SS (20.1%).
• Length, 23 ft 10 in: fifth-longest of eleven, between the CL180 (23 ft 9 in) and the 22CT (23 ft 11 in).
• Exterior height, 10 ft 4 in: tallest of eleven, level with the 20C; next are the 22CP, 22CT and four others (10 ft 3 in).
• Grey tank, 25 gal: smallest of eleven, level with the CL163; next are the 15C, 16C and seven others (32 gal).
• Black tank, 25 gal: smallest of eleven, level with the CL163; next are the 15C, 16C and seven others (32 gal).
• GVWR, 5,000 lb: shared with the 22CT; of eleven, five lower and four higher, nearest the 20C and CL180 (4,500 lb) and the 22CP and CL232SS (5,500 lb).

Next to the 22CT, the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the 22CTS is 142 lb heavier by dry weight, has 142 lb less cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 52 lb heavier, is 1 in shorter, stands 1 in taller, has a fresh tank 15 gal larger, has a grey tank 7 gal smaller and has a black tank 7 gal smaller; the two publish the same GVWR and interior height.

Next to the 23CFK, the nearest heavier floorplan by dry weight, the 22CTS is 180 lb lighter by dry weight, has a GVWR 1,000 lb lower, has 820 lb less cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 90 lb lighter, is 1 ft shorter, stands 1 in taller, has a grey tank 7 gal smaller and has a black tank 7 gal smaller; the two publish the same interior height and fresh tank.

KZ’s Coyote brochure (filed in KZ’s 2012 brochure folder; the brochure prints no year) lists 11 Coyote floorplans; every one with a printed weight has a page here.

A full 40-gallon fresh tank is about 332 lb of water (water counts as cargo: 49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.2), 35% of the Coyote 22CTS’s 940 lb cargo capacity, leaving 608 lb. Across 11 Coyote floorplans the water share runs 19% to 40%, and 3 give up more than this one. Nearest on that share: Coyote 15C at 34% and Coyote 16C at 37%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.3).

The record at the top of this page is the 22CTS from 2012. The maker’s own documents for earlier model years also list the 22CTS, and that year is printed here: 2011. The figures change from year to year, so check the year on the trailer’s own label. A field a year’s brochure does not print reads “Not published” and is never filled from another year.
