Highland Ridge lists the 2020 Mesa Ridge Conventional MR26BH at 4,735 lb dry, a GVWR of 6,500 lb, a net carrying capacity of 1,765 lb and a tongue weight of 585 lb. Its dry weight plus its carrying capacity comes to exactly its GVWR.

Among the 15 Mesa Ridge Conventional floorplans Highland Ridge’s Mesa Ridge Conventional brochure (filed under 2020 on its own site; the brochure prints no year) lists with a published dry weight, it is number 8 from the lightest, in a range from 3,445 lb (Mesa Ridge Conventional MR171RD) to 7,600 lb (Mesa Ridge Conventional MR32BHS). Every figure in that comparison is Highland Ridge’s, for the same model year.

Every number on this page was read on 5 Nov 2026 from Highland Ridge’s Mesa Ridge Conventional brochure (filed under 2020 on its own site; the brochure prints no year); model year 2020 comes from where the maker files it on its own site, not from the document’s text.

• Cargo capacity as a share of GVWR, 27.2%: third-largest of fifteen, between the MR27BHS (26.4%) and the MR20FBS (28.7%).
• Cargo capacity, 1,765 lb: fifth-largest of fifteen, between the MR21FB (1,725 lb) and the MR26BHS (1,775 lb).
• Tongue weight, 585 lb: seventh-heaviest of fifteen, between the MR21RBS (575 lb) and the MR282BH (610 lb).
• Dry weight, 4,735 lb: eighth-lightest of fifteen, between the MR20FBS (4,280 lb) and the MR23RLS (5,420 lb).
• Tongue weight as a share of dry weight, 12.4%: shared with the MR27BHS; of fifteen, nine smaller and four larger, nearest the MR20MB (11.7%) and the MR26BHS (12.6%).
• GVWR, 6,500 lb: shared with the MR23RLS; of fifteen, seven lower and six higher, nearest the MR20FBS and MR21FB (6,000 lb) and the MR21RBS (7,200 lb).
• Exterior height, 10 ft 6 in: shared with the MR20FBS and MR21FB; of fifteen, five lower and seven taller, nearest the MR19BH and MR20MB (10 ft 5 in) and the MR21RBS (10 ft 9 in).

Next to the MR20FBS, the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the MR26BH is 455 lb heavier by dry weight, has a GVWR 500 lb higher, has 45 lb more cargo capacity and has a tongue weight 185 lb heavier; the two publish the same exterior height, interior height, fresh tank, grey tank and black tank.

Across 15 Mesa Ridge Conventional floorplans the water share runs 18% to 37%, and 8 give up more than this one. Nearest on that share: Mesa Ridge Conventional MR26BHS at 22% and Mesa Ridge Conventional MR19BH at 23%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.3).
