Every number on this page was read on 8 Nov 2026 from KZ’s own 2026 Durango Half-Ton floorplan page for the Durango Half-Ton D240RKD, whose heading names the model year 2026.
How the D240RKD differs from the other nine Durango Half-Ton floorplans. Most distinctive first. Sibling pages may cover other model years than this one (2026). How these ranks are worked out.
- Pin weight, 1,470 lb: fourth-lightest of ten, between the D232MLD (1,430 lb) and the D296BHT (1,575 lb).
- Pin weight as a share of dry weight, 16.4%: fourth-smallest of ten, between the D290RLT (16.3%) and the D220RKD (16.5%).
- Dry weight, 8,940 lb: fifth-lightest of ten, between the D250RST (8,760 lb) and the D286BHD (9,320 lb).
- GVWR, 11,000 lb: fifth-lowest of ten, between the D250RST (10,995 lb) and the D256RKT, D283RLT and D286BHD (11,500 lb).
- Cargo capacity, 2,060 lb: fifth-smallest of ten, between the D230RDD (2,015 lb) and the D290RLT (2,145 lb).
- Cargo capacity as a share of GVWR, 18.7%: fifth-smallest of ten, between the D290RLT (17.9%) and the D286BHD (19%).
- Length, 31 ft 8 in: fifth-shortest of ten, between the D250RST (29 ft 4 in) and the D283RLT (32 ft 11 in).
- Exterior height, 12 ft 5 in: shared with the D286BHD; of ten, five lower and three taller, nearest the D256RKT and D283RLT (12 ft 4 in) and the D230RDD, D232MLD and D250RST (12 ft 6 in).
- Grey tank, 90 gal: largest of ten, level with the D220RKD, D232MLD and two others; next are the D230RDD, D250RST and three others (50 gal).
Next to the D250RST (2027 page), the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the D240RKD is 180 lb heavier by dry weight, has a GVWR 5 lb higher, has 175 lb less cargo capacity, is 2 ft 4 in longer, stands 1 in lower and has a grey tank 40 gal larger; the two publish the same fresh tank, black tank and sleeping capacity.
Next to the D286BHD (2027 page), the nearest heavier floorplan by dry weight, the D240RKD is 380 lb lighter by dry weight, has a GVWR 500 lb lower, has 120 lb less cargo capacity, is 1 ft 11 in shorter and sleeps five fewer; the two publish the same exterior height, fresh tank, grey 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 (11,000 lb) and the upper loaded pin estimate (2,750 lb, a rule of thumb). Your vehicle’s placard and the trailer’s own weight label govern.
Loaded range: 15–25% of GVWR on the pin, 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 KZ does not publish for the Durango Half-Ton D240RKD
KZ prints no interior height 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
The weight label every RV trailer carries by law (49 CFR 571.110 and 571.120) governs the towing decision, not this page.
05 How it compares
7,800 lb dry and 10,000 lb GVWR, against this model’s 8,940 lb and 11,000 lb.
06 Loading it for a trip
A full 55-gallon fresh tank is about 457 lb of water (water counts as cargo: 49 CFR 571.120 S10.4.2), 22% of the Durango Half-Ton D240RKD’s 2,060 lb cargo capacity, leaving 1,604 lb (321 lb per rated berth). Across 10 Durango Half-Ton floorplans the water share runs 20% to 25%, and 4 give up more than this one. Nearest on that share: Durango Half-Ton D290RLT at 21% and Durango Half-Ton D230RDD at 23%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.120 S10.4.3).
