01 What East to West publishes for the Della Terra
East to West RV, a Forest River company, of Elkhart, Indiana, lists 25 Della Terra travel trailers on its 2027 Della Terra floorplan pages. Twenty-two print a dry weight and a net carrying capacity, and each of those has a page here; 16RE, 19MG and 215DBH print every figure as TBD and have no page yet. East to West prints no GVWR for any of them, so none is shown and none is computed. Fourteen of the 22 are filed “Dealer Stock Only” and each of their pages says so. (How the data is verified.)

Read from East to West’s 2027 Della Terra floorplan pages, 8 Nov 2026. “Not published” means the maker prints no figure; nothing is filled from another model, year or dealer.

03 Reading East to West’s figures
A maker’s published weight is for a base trailer; options and dealer-installed equipment add weight to any particular unit. The federal weight label inside the trailer carries its own unloaded weight, cargo carrying capacity and GVWR (49 CFR 567 and 571.120): read it on the unit itself before any towing decision.
04 Equipment East to West lists for the 2027 Della Terra
East to West’s own line page for the 2027 Della Terra lists these 59 items under its own headings. They are copied from a saved copy of that page, in its own words. Equipment changes by floorplan and model year, and a dealer may add or remove items: check the unit itself. Each floorplan page names the sources of its own figures.

|---|---|---|---|
| 6 May 2022 | Structure › Body | — | There is a CURRENT recall campaign for this issue. I believe it should be expanded. There has been no issue YET, but there WILL be if not repaired.

How this count is drawn. A report is counted here only when NHTSA’s own model field names this line. What the owner typed in the description is never used to attribute a report: our line names are ordinary English words, and an owner writing “imagine my surprise when the axle went” or naming the state of Montana is not reporting a Grand Design Imagine or a Keystone Montana.
Read these as reports, not as findings. Complaints are submitted by owners and NHTSA does not verify them; no complaint here has been confirmed as a defect, and none of them is a recall. The sample is also self-selected — only owners motivated to file appear in it — so a high count tracks how many units a line sold at least as much as how well it was built. Use the pattern, not the total: a component that keeps recurring is worth inspecting on any used unit. File or search complaints at NHTSA.
