2026 East to West Longitude230FK

The Longitude 230FK leaves East to West's factory at 6,113 lbs dry, with a published GVWR of 9,630 lbs and 3,517 lbs of cargo capacity between the two. Cargo capacity is 37% of the loaded rating, and East to West's own definition is worth reading before you plan against it: cargo capacity is what remains for fresh water, gear, food, batteries and every dealer-installed accessory. Fresh water alone is 8.3 lb per gallon, so filling this trailer's 53-gallon fresh tank spends 440 lbs of that 3,517 lbs before anything else is loaded.

Tongue weight is 830 lbs, 14% of the dry weight as published; it rises as the trailer is loaded and counts against the tow vehicle’s tongue-weight and payload limits (tongue weight by size).

Off hookups: 90 gallons of grey and black capacity against 53 gallons of fresh water, so fresh water runs out first (tank sizes by length).

Against the rest of the Longitude roster this is the 4th of 8 floorplans by dry weight, in a line that runs from 5,293 lbs to 8,033 lbs. It sits in the middle of the line by weight.

Plan the tow on loaded weight, not the 6,113 lbs dry figure: half the published cargo capacity brings this plan to about 7,871 lbs, and the published GVWR of 9,630 lbs is the limit (how to read trailer weights).

East to West’s line listing and this floorplan’s own factory page agree on all 4 shared figures. Dry weight plus cargo capacity equals the published GVWR exactly. A missing row means East to West does not publish that figure (how figures are verified).

East to West publishes no floorplan description for this plan in the channel this page is built from - only the numeric specification block. Rather than describe a layout from the floorplan code, which would be a guess dressed as a fact, this page carries what the factory publishes and says where it stops. 230FK is a Longitude designation and this site does not decode it into a layout claim.

How the 230FK differs from the other seven Longitude floorplans. Most distinctive first. Sibling pages may cover other model years than this one (2026). How these ranks are worked out.

• Cargo capacity as a share of GVWR, 36.5%: largest of eight; next is the 310RL (31.7%).
• Tongue weight as a share of dry weight, 13.6%: second-largest of eight, between the 319BH (12%) and the 185RB (14%).
• Length, 28 ft 6 in: second-shortest of eight, between the 185RB (24 ft 1 in) and the 250RD (30 ft).
• Cargo capacity, 3,517 lb: third-largest of eight, between the 185RB (2,447 lb) and the 319BH (3,547 lb).
• Dry weight, 6,113 lb: fourth-lightest of eight, between the 250RD (6,103 lb) and the 285BH (7,628 lb).
• GVWR, 9,630 lb: fourth-highest of eight, between the 315FB (9,400 lb) and the 285BH (9,680 lb).
• Tongue weight, 830 lb: fourth-lightest of eight, between the 185RB (740 lb) and the 315FB (840 lb).

Next to the 250RD (2027 page), the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the 230FK is 10 lb heavier by dry weight, has a GVWR 1,925 lb higher, has 1,915 lb more cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 125 lb heavier, is 1 ft 6 in shorter and has a fresh tank 7 gal larger; the two publish the same exterior height, grey tank and black tank.

Next to the 285BH, the nearest heavier floorplan by dry weight, the 230FK is 1,515 lb lighter by dry weight, has a GVWR 50 lb lower, has 1,465 lb more cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 50 lb lighter and is 5 ft 3 in shorter; the two publish the same exterior height, fresh tank, grey tank and black tank.

Longitude is the only East to West line on this site that publishes a GVWR, and it is worth saying plainly what that buys you: on all seven plans where East to West publishes one, dry weight plus cargo capacity equals the published GVWR exactly. That arithmetic tying out is the difference between a loaded rating you can plan a tow around and a number somebody added up. GVWR runs 7,650 to 11,335 lb across the seven, against dry weights of 5,293 to 8,033 lb and cargo capacity of 1,367 to 3,572 lb. Tongue weight runs 650 to 935 lb, all bumper pull. Three more floorplans are published on the roster with no weights at all yet, and they are listed as announced rather than given specifications they do not have.

A full 53-gallon fresh tank is about 440 lb of water (water counts as cargo: 49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.2), 13% of the 230FK’s 3,517 lb cargo capacity, leaving 3,077 lb. Across 8 Longitude floorplans the water share runs 12% to 28%, and 5 give up more than this one. Nearest on that share: Longitude 319BH at 12% and Longitude 185RB at 18%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.3).
