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 (9,500 lb) and the upper loaded tongue estimate (1,425 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 Highland Ridge does not publish for the Mesa Ridge Limited MR331BHS
Highland Ridge prints no 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
7,810 lb dry and 9,250 lb GVWR, against this model’s 7,955 lb and 9,500 lb.
7,965 lb dry and 9,735 lb GVWR, against this model’s 7,955 lb and 9,500 lb.
06 Loading it for a trip
A full 51-gallon fresh tank is about 423 lb of water (water counts as cargo: 49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.2), 27% of the Mesa Ridge Limited MR331BHS’s 1,545 lb cargo capacity, leaving 1,122 lb. Across 5 Mesa Ridge Limited floorplans the water share runs 24% to 30%, and 2 give up more than this one. Nearest on that share: Mesa Ridge Limited MR312BHS at 24% and Mesa Ridge Limited MR313RLS at 29%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.3).
