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 (13,500 lb) and the upper loaded pin estimate (3,375 lb, a rule of thumb). Your vehicle’s placard and the trailer’s own weight label govern.
Loaded range: 15–25% of GVWR on the pin, a rule of thumb, not a measurement of this unit. No truck ratings or hitch classes (why; NHTSA, DOT HS 809 433). The range starts at the published figure, because loaded is never lighter than that.

04 Notes on this floorplan
What Highland Ridge does not publish for the Mesa Ridge XLT 364BHS
Highland Ridge prints no interior height, 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
9,635 lb dry and 11,500 lb GVWR, against this model’s 10,970 lb and 13,500 lb.
11,440 lb dry and 13,500 lb GVWR, against this model’s 10,970 lb and 13,500 lb.
06 Loading it for a trip
A full 81-gallon fresh tank is about 672 lb of water (water counts as cargo: 49 CFR 571.120 S10.4.2), 27% of the Mesa Ridge XLT 364BHS’s 2,530 lb cargo capacity, leaving 1,858 lb. Across 3 Mesa Ridge XLT floorplans the water share runs 27% to 36%, and this plan’s is the lowest. Nearest on that share: Mesa Ridge XLT 354MBH at 33%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.120 S10.4.3).
