01 What makes it unique
Alliance RV lists the 2027 Delta Ultra Lite BH255 at 6,190 lb dry, a GVWR of 8,450 lb and a tongue weight of 670 lb. Alliance RV prints no cargo carrying capacity for it, so none is given here; the federal label inside the trailer carries one.
It is 29' 11" long. Alliance RV prints its tanks as 45 gal fresh, 82 gal grey, 45 gal black.
Among the 19 Alliance RV Delta floorplans Alliance RV’s 2027 Delta brochure lists with a published dry weight, it is number 9 from the lightest, in a range from 3,990 lb (Delta Solo RB152) to 8,253 lb (Delta 321BH). Every figure in that comparison is Alliance RV’s, for the same model year.
Every number on this page was read on 5 Nov 2026 from Alliance RV’s 2027 Delta brochure, the maker’s own dated document for model year 2027.
How the BH255 differs from the other seven Alliance RV Delta floorplans. Most distinctive first. How these ranks are worked out.
- Tongue weight as a share of dry weight, 10.8%: smallest of seven; next is the RE250 (10.9%).
- Tongue weight, 670 lb: third-lightest of seven, between the ML216 (589 lb) and the RE250 (675 lb).
- Dry weight, 6,190 lb: fourth-heaviest of eight, between the RE250 (6,175 lb) and the 2713 (6,462 lb).
- GVWR, 8,450 lb: shared with the LK254 and RE250; of seven, two lower and two higher, nearest the ML216 (7,450 lb) and the 284RK (9,450 lb).
- Grey tank, 82 gal: shared with the LK254 and RE250; of eight, two smaller and three larger, nearest the ML166 and ML216 (45 gal) and the 258FK, 2713 and 284RK (90 gal).
- Length, 29 ft 11 in: shared with the 258FK, LK254 and RE250; of eight, two shorter and two longer, nearest the ML216 (25 ft 11 in) and the 2713 (31 ft 11 in).
Next to the RE250, the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the BH255 is 15 lb heavier by dry weight and has a tongue weight 5 lb lighter; the two publish the same GVWR, length, fresh tank, grey tank and black tank.
Next to the 2713, the nearest heavier floorplan by dry weight, the BH255 is 272 lb lighter by dry weight, has a GVWR 2,000 lb lower, has a tongue weight 288 lb lighter, is 2 ft shorter and has a grey tank 8 gal smaller; the two publish the same fresh tank and black tank.

Towing it
Check your vehicle. Enter the ratings from your owner’s manual and the door-pillar placard.
Compares your figures with this page’s published GVWR (8,450 lb) and the upper loaded tongue estimate (1,268 lb, a rule of thumb). Your vehicle’s placard and the trailer’s own weight label govern.
Loaded range: 10–15% of GVWR on the tongue, a rule of thumb, not a measurement of this unit. No truck ratings or hitch classes (why; NHTSA, DOT HS 809 433).

04 Notes on this floorplan
What Alliance RV does not publish for the Delta Ultra Lite BH255
Alliance RV prints no cargo carrying capacity, tire size, interior height, sleeping capacity for this model, so none is given. Nothing is filled from a sibling model, 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). Those figures come from the trailer itself and govern the towing decision.
05 How it compares
6,175 lb dry and 8,450 lb GVWR, against this model’s 6,190 lb and 8,450 lb.

11 NHTSA safety record
NHTSA holds 1 recall campaign and 2 owner complaints (model years 2005 on) against the Delta line (a recall and a complaint are not the same thing).
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 equipment and unknown or other.
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 Delta line page.
