01 What makes it unique
Ember lists the 2027 Touring Edition 2400RKL at 6,510 lb unloaded (UVW), with a GVWR of 8,495 lb, a cargo carrying capacity of 1,985 lb and a hitch weight of 790 lb. Its UVW plus its cargo capacity comes to exactly its GVWR.
It is 28' 11" long and 11' 4" high with the air conditioner, with 55 gal fresh, 70 gal grey, 35 gal black. Fresh water weighs about 8.3 lb per US gallon, so a full fresh tank uses roughly 457 lb of the cargo capacity before anything else is loaded.
Among the 7 Touring Edition floorplans Ember lists for 2027 with a published weight, it is number 5 by unloaded weight, in a range from 5,915 lb (2100RKL) to 7,480 lb (2800ETL). Every figure in that comparison is Ember’s, for the same model year.
Every number on this page was read on 5 Nov 2026 from Ember’s own floorplan page for the Touring Edition 2400RKL, whose structured data names the model year 2027.
How the 2400RKL differs from the other six Touring Edition floorplans. Most distinctive first. How these ranks are worked out.
- Tongue weight as a share of dry weight, 12.1%: second-largest of seven, between the 2300MLL (11.8%) and the 2500RDL (13.1%).
- Dry weight, 6,510 lb: third-heaviest of seven, between the 2300MLL (6,465 lb) and the 2850DBL (7,395 lb).
- GVWR, 8,495 lb: third-highest of seven, between the 2500RDL (8,395 lb) and the 2800ETL and 2850DBL (9,495 lb).
- Cargo capacity, 1,985 lb: third-largest of seven, between the 2500RDL (1,975 lb) and the 2800ETL (2,015 lb).
- Cargo capacity as a share of GVWR, 23.4%: third-largest of seven, between the 2200ETL (23.3%) and the 2500RDL (23.5%).
- Length, 28 ft 11 in: third-shortest of seven, between the 2200ETL (27 ft 5 in) and the 2300MLL (29 ft 5 in).
- Tongue weight, 790 lb: fourth-lightest of seven, between the 2300MLL (760 lb) and the 2500RDL (840 lb).
Next to the 2300MLL, the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the 2400RKL is 45 lb heavier by dry weight, has a GVWR 300 lb higher, has 255 lb more cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 30 lb heavier and is 6 in shorter; the two publish the same exterior height, fresh tank, grey tank and black tank.
Next to the 2850DBL, the nearest heavier floorplan by dry weight, the 2400RKL is 885 lb lighter by dry weight, has a GVWR 1,000 lb lower, has 115 lb less cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 70 lb lighter and is 4 ft shorter; 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 (8,495 lb) and the upper loaded tongue estimate (1,274 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 Ember does not publish for the 2400RKL
Ember’s page prints no axle count and no interior height against this floorplan, so none is given. Nothing is filled from a sibling floorplan, 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
6,465 lb UVW and 8,195 lb GVWR, against this plan’s 6,510 lb and 8,495 lb.
7,395 lb UVW and 9,495 lb GVWR, against this plan’s 6,510 lb and 8,495 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 571.110 S9.3.2), 23% of the 2400RKL’s 1,985 lb cargo capacity, leaving 1,528 lb (382 lb per rated berth). Across 7 Touring Edition floorplans the water share runs 22% to 26%, and 4 give up more than this one. Nearest on that share: Touring Edition 2800ETL at 23% and Touring Edition 2500RDL at 23%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.3).
07 Where this floorplan sits
Closest sibling: the Touring Edition 2500RDL, nearest on the published figures.
