01 What Delta is
Delta is Alliance RV's travel-trailer line — the lighter, half-ton-friendly bumper-pull side of a maker best known for its fifth wheels. Alliance launched Delta in July 2023 as its move down-market from the luxury Paradigm and mid-profile Avenue fifth wheels into towables a full-size pickup — and in the lightest plans a capable SUV — can pull. Alliance is an independent, privately held maker in Elkhart, Indiana, founded by brothers Coley and Ryan Brady and known for designing to owner feedback rather than to a corporate parent; it is not part of Thor, Forest River or Winnebago. Delta cross-shops the mainstream travel trailers — Grand Design's Imagine, Jayco's Jay Flight SLX, Forest River's Salem / Wildwood and Keystone's Passport.
The build is well-equipped for the class. Every Delta rides a bumper-pull tandem-axle chassis with a walk-on seamless PVC roof, a double-insulated front wall, a heated and enclosed underbelly with 12-volt tank heaters, 62 cubic feet of drop-frame pass-through storage, Goodyear Endurance tires with Counteract balancing beads on aluminum rims with a spare, keyed-alike compartment locks, a MorRyde Step Above entry and electric auto-leveling. Inside are a 10-cubic-foot 12-volt refrigerator, oversized atrium windows, a 40- or 50-inch smart TV on a swing arm, soft-close hardware and roller shades; the standard solar package is a 400-watt panel with a 30-amp MPPT controller and 3,000-watt inverter prep on 50-amp service with a detachable cord. For 2026 Delta adds new graphics, wood-plank flooring and a composite-tile backsplash.
The line has three tiers. The main Delta range runs to fifteen 2026 plans filed by RVUSA; a lighter Delta Ultra Lite trims weight further (RVUSA labels all of these simply “Delta,” so per-plan Ultra Lite status is not asserted here); and a new-for-2026 single-axle-class Delta Solo sub-line is the value entry below the main line. Seven floorplans are profiled in depth below — six main-line plans plus the Solo BH181 — with the remaining plans catalogued from published specifications.
02 Floorplans profiled in depth
Seven 2026 floorplans are profiled in full with RVUSA-verified specifications, spanning the line from the value-entry Delta Solo bunkhouse and the lightest main-line couples plan to the flagship dual-bunk bunkhouse: the Solo BH181, the compact ML206, a rear-bath plan, a family bunkhouse, a rear-living great room, a rear kitchen and the biggest 321BH.
| Floorplan | Dry wt | Length | Sleeps | Layout | MSRP |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| BH181 | 4,689 lbs | 22' 11" | 5 | Delta Solo entry bunkhouse (new 2026) — lightest, cheapest Alliance towable | $39,396 |
| ML206 | 5,040 lbs | 23' 11" | 2 | Compact couples plan, single slide — lightest, cheapest main Delta | $45,324 |
| 262RB | 6,600 lbs | 29' 7" | 3 | Rear bath, single slide, 90-gal grey — long-stay couples/small family | $53,618 |
| 281BH | 7,150 lbs | 31' 11" | 7 | Rear bunks, dual entry, single slide — sleeps seven | $57,908 |
| 292RL | 7,850 lbs | 33' 11" | 3 | Rear living great room, two slides, two awnings — couples | $63,771 |
| 294RK | 7,360 lbs | 33' 11" | 4 | Rear kitchen, two slides — biggest cargo of its length pair | $62,627 |
| 321BH | 8,330 lbs | 36' 11" | 7 | Dual-bunk bunkhouse, two slides — flagship, biggest, sleeps seven | $69,205 |
Body specifications (lengths, heights, payload, tanks, sleeping, slides and awnings) are verified against the RVUSA structured records for the 2026 Delta roster. Dry weight (UVW), GVWR, payload (CCC) and tongue (hitch) weight are published per plan, and for every plan the base dry weight plus payload equals the GVWR exactly — so all weight figures are shown unflagged with no derivation. RVUSA does not publish an exterior width for the Delta line, so that field is shown as unpublished on the individual plan pages. MSRP figures are starting MSRP; dealer (street) pricing runs well below placard. Sleeps figures are dealer-typical. Real loaded tongue weights run higher — weigh the loaded trailer and confirm against your vehicle's tow rating and payload.
03 Also in the 2026 line
Ten further 2026 Delta floorplans are catalogued here from published specifications but not yet profiled in depth — nine main-line plans plus the Delta Solo RB152. Like the profiled plans, all publish GVWR per plan with dry weight plus CCC equal to GVWR exactly. The lighter letter-prefix codes (ML, RK, BH, RE) are the more compact half-ton plans; the numeric-prefix codes are the larger family plans.
| Floorplan | Dry wt | GVWR | Payload | Tongue | Length |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| RB152 | 3,990 lbs | 4,850 lbs | 860 lbs | 580 lbs | 19' 11" |
| ML226 | 5,740 lbs | 7,450 lbs | 1,710 lbs | 710 lbs | 26' 11" |
| RK234 | 5,740 lbs | 7,450 lbs | 1,710 lbs | 670 lbs | 27' 11" |
| 252RL | 6,780 lbs | 8,450 lbs | 1,670 lbs | 735 lbs | 29' 11" |
| BH241 | 6,160 lbs | 7,450 lbs | 1,290 lbs | 640 lbs | 29' 11" |
| BH271 | 6,160 lbs | 7,450 lbs | 1,290 lbs | 640 lbs | 29' 11" |
| RE250 | 6,175 lbs | 8,450 lbs | 2,275 lbs | 675 lbs | 29' 11" |
| 274RKW | 7,420 lbs | 9,250 lbs | 1,830 lbs | 870 lbs | 31' 11" |
| 284RK | 7,536 lbs | 9,450 lbs | 1,914 lbs | 870 lbs | 32' 11" |
| 291BH | 7,490 lbs | 9,250 lbs | 1,760 lbs | 960 lbs | 34' 6" |
Catalogued weights are verified against the RVUSA structured records for the 2026 Delta roster; dry weight plus payload equals GVWR exactly on each. Several catalogued plans (including the Delta Solo RB152) carry no published MSRP on the source record. One further Solo plan is deferred rather than shown with estimated weights: the Delta Solo ML166 (a 19' 11" plan) publishes a 4,850-pound GVWR but no dry weight or CCC on the source record — so it is not detailed here until Alliance or the source publishes its dry weight and cargo capacity. These plans are documented for reference and their full floorplan profiles are planned but not yet published.
04 How to choose
The Delta line sorts by weight tier and layout. For the lightest, most affordable way in, the new Delta Solo sub-line leads with the BH181 — a compact bunkhouse sleeping five at 4,689 pounds dry and a starting MSRP around $39,000, the cheapest and lightest trailer Alliance builds — and the main-line ML206 is the lightest couples plan at 5,040 pounds dry. Both suit a well-rated half-ton or a capable SUV; the Solo plans carry tighter cargo margins, so load them carefully.
In the main line, choose by where the living space goes. The 262RB puts a full rear bathroom across the back with a 90-gallon grey tank for long stays; the 281BH is the dual-entry family bunkhouse sleeping seven; the 292RL opens a windowed rear living great room on two slides; the 294RK runs a residential rear kitchen with the biggest cargo margin of its length pair; and the flagship 321BH is the largest and heaviest Delta — a dual-bunk bunkhouse sleeping seven at the top edge of half-ton-plus towing.
Across all of them the construction is the same: a bumper-pull chassis with a walk-on seamless PVC roof, a heated and enclosed underbelly, 62 cubic feet of pass-through storage, Goodyear Endurance tires, a MorRyde Step Above entry, electric auto-leveling and the 400-watt solar package. The decision is weight tier, layout and how many the plan sleeps — and whether the value-entry Delta Solo fits. Above Delta in the Alliance range sit the mid-profile Avenue and luxury Paradigm fifth wheels for buyers ready to step up from a travel trailer.
05 What to weigh before buying
This is a half-ton travel trailer from an independent maker
Delta competes with the mainstream travel trailers — Grand Design's Imagine, Jayco's Jay Flight SLX, Forest River's Salem / Wildwood and Keystone's Passport. Its case is a genuinely well-equipped build for the class — a walk-on seamless PVC roof, a heated and enclosed underbelly, 62 cubic feet of pass-through storage, Goodyear Endurance tires, a MorRyde Step Above entry, electric auto-leveling and a 400-watt solar package as standard — from the same owner-driven independent company that builds the luxury Paradigm fifth wheel. Because Alliance is independent — not part of Thor, Forest River or Winnebago — its lineup is smaller and its dealer network more concentrated than the majors; check dealer coverage and parts support in your region as part of the cross-shop.
The Delta Solo sub-line is the value entry — watch the cargo margins
New for 2026, Delta Solo is Alliance's single-axle-class value entry below the main Delta line, aimed at first-time and budget-focused buyers. The lead BH181 bunkhouse sleeps five at 4,689 pounds dry and starts around $39,000 — the lowest price in the whole Alliance range. The trade is capacity: the Solo plans carry tighter cargo-carrying capacities (the BH181's is 961 pounds, a sub-1,000-pound margin), so plan your water, gear and passengers carefully against them. RVUSA also does not publish the air-conditioner count for the Solo plans, which is shown as unpublished on the plan pages rather than estimated.
Match the tow vehicle honestly — real tongue weights
Delta spans a wide weight range. The plans with data run from 3,990 to 8,330 pounds dry on GVWRs from 4,850 to 10,450 pounds, with dry tongue weights from 580 to 960 pounds — and real loaded tongue weights run higher. The lightest Solo and ML plans suit a well-rated half-ton or a capable SUV; the biggest 321BH sits at the top edge of half-ton-plus towing and is an honest match for a well-rated half-ton or a three-quarter-ton. Tow rating alone is not enough — the tow vehicle's payload has to carry the tongue weight plus passengers and gear. Treat brochure tongue weights as a floor, weigh the loaded trailer, and confirm against your vehicle's door-jamb ratings and a proper weight-distributing hitch before buying.
