01 What makes it unique
Gulf Stream lists the Ameri-Lite 134RD at 2,630 lb dry, a net carrying capacity of 1,270 lb and a tongue weight of 400 lb. It prints no GVWR for it.
It is 16' long and 10' 3" high. Gulf Stream prints no tank capacity for it.
Among the 34 Ameri-Lite floorplans Gulf Stream’s Ameri-Lite model pages on gulfstreamcoach.com (no model year stated) lists with a published dry weight, it is number 2 from the lightest, in a range from 2,630 lb (Ameri-Lite 134BH) to 6,320 lb (Ameri-Lite 292RBH). Every figure in that comparison is Gulf Stream’s, read from the same set of model pages.
Every number on this page was read on 6 Nov 2026 from Gulf Stream’s own Ameri-Lite model pages on gulfstreamcoach.com (no model year stated) for the Ameri-Lite 134RD, which names no model year; the figures are shown as the maker published them, and no year is claimed for them.
How the 134RD differs from the other 33 Ameri-Lite floorplans. Most distinctive first. How these ranks are worked out.
- Dry weight, 2,630 lb: lightest of 34, level with the 134BH; next is the 14RE (2,780 lb).
- Length, 16 ft: shared with the 134BH; of 34, one shorter and 31 longer, nearest the 14RE (15 ft 10 in) and the 15TH (16 ft 2 in).
- Exterior height, 10 ft 3 in: shared with the 134BH and 14RE; of 34, one lower and 30 taller, nearest the 241RB (9 ft 10 in) and the 16RBT, 177BH and six others (10 ft 4 in).
- Tongue weight as a share of dry weight, 15.2%: shared with the 134BH; of 34, 29 smaller and three larger, nearest the 257RB and 292RBH (14.6%) and the 15TH (16.8%).
- Tongue weight, 400 lb: shared with the 134BH, 192DS and 20RBS; of 34, eight lighter and 22 heavier, nearest the 19RD (390 lb) and the 16RD (430 lb).
- Cargo capacity, 1,270 lb: shared with the 134BH; of 34, eleven smaller and 21 larger, nearest the 19RD (1,238 lb) and the 228SB (1,300 lb).
Next to the 14RE, the nearest heavier floorplan by dry weight, the 134RD is 150 lb lighter by dry weight, has 250 lb more cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 100 lb heavier and is 2 in longer; the two publish the same exterior height.
On every figure compared here the 134RD publishes the same values as the 134BH, so on these numbers alone they cannot be told apart.

04 Notes on this floorplan
What Gulf Stream does not publish for the Ameri-Lite 134RD
Gulf Stream prints no GVWR, tire size, interior height, grey-tank, black-tank, 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

07 Where this floorplan sits
Closest sibling: the Ameri-Lite 134BH. The two publish identical figures on all 4 fields both carry (length, dry weight, cargo capacity, hitch weight), so the published record does not tell them apart; what separates them is the floorplan itself.
| Ameri-Lite plans | This plan | Position, low to high | Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dry weight (lb) | 2,630 | 1–2 of 34 | 2,630–6,320 |
| Cargo capacity (lb) | 1,270 | 12–13 of 34 | 610–4,330 |
| Hitch weight (lb) | 400 | 9–12 of 34 | 300–930 |
| Length | 16 ft 0 in | 2–3 of 34 | 15 ft 10 in–33 ft 11 in |
Either side of it by dry weight: Ameri-Lite 134BH matches it at 2,630 lb dry; Ameri-Lite 14RE is 150 lb heavier (2,780 lb dry).

11 NHTSA safety record
NHTSA holds 8 recall campaigns and 5 owner complaints (model years 2005 on) against the Ameri-Lite line (a recall and a complaint are not the same thing).
Too few reports to show a pattern. 5 complaints have been filed on this line — not enough to say what fails most often. They cover latches/locks/linkages, structure, suspension and wheels.
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 Ameri-Lite line page.
