01 What makes it unique
The Momentum G-Class 25G is a travel-trailer toy hauler 30 ft 11 in long with a 13 ft 6 in garage, on two axles with two slide-outs and a 30-gallon fuel station. It is on Grand Design’s Momentum G-Class roster for 2027.
Grand Design’s page lists an unloaded vehicle weight of 8,600 lb, a GVWR of 13,000 lb and a tongue weight of 1,400 lb. It publishes no cargo carrying capacity, so none is printed or computed here. Tanks are 90 gal fresh, 78 gal grey and 39 gal black, and it sleeps 6.
Grand Design’s page names the 27G and 29GS as comparison floorplans.
How the 25G differs from the other eleven Momentum travel trailers. Most distinctive first. Each rank counts only the siblings that publish that field, and a figure most of them share is left out.
- Dry weight, 8,600 lb: fifth-heaviest of twelve, between the 30MAV (8,400 lb) and the 27G (8,650 lb).
- Tongue weight as a share of dry weight, 16.3%: fifth-largest of twelve, between the 31G (16.2%) and the 30MAV (16.7%).
- Length, 30 ft 11 in: fifth-shortest of twelve, between the 24MAV (29 ft 11 in) and the 27MAV (32 ft 2 in).
- Grey tank, 78 gal: largest of twelve, level with the 27G, 29GS and 30G; next are the 17MAV, 21G and five others (74 gal).
- Slide-out count, 2: most of eight, level with the 29GS, 30G and 31G; next are the 21G, 27G and two others (1).
- GVWR, 13,000 lb: highest of twelve, level with the 27G, 29GS and two others; next is the 30MAV (12,000 lb).
- Interior height, 7 ft 7 in: shared with the 21G, 30G and 31G; of nine, four lower and one taller, nearest the 17MAV, 22MAV and two others (7 ft) and the 27G (8 ft 7 in).
- Tongue weight, 1,400 lb: shared with the 30MAV; of twelve, six lighter and four heavier, nearest the 24MAV and 28MAV (1,200 lb) and the 30G (1,425 lb).
- Exterior height, 12 ft 4 in: tallest of twelve, level with the 21G, 27G and three others; next are the 17MAV, 22MAV and four others (12 ft 2 in).
- Black tank, 39 gal: shared with the 21G, 27G and two others; of twelve, six smaller and one larger, nearest the 17MAV, 22MAV and four others (37 gal) and the 31G (76 gal).
Next to the 30MAV, the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the 25G is 200 lb heavier by dry weight, has a GVWR 1,000 lb higher, is 6 ft shorter, stands 2 in taller, has a grey tank 4 gal larger, has a black tank 2 gal larger and has one more slide-out; the two publish the same tongue weight, fresh tank and sleeping capacity.
Next to the 27G, the nearest heavier floorplan by dry weight, the 25G is 50 lb lighter by dry weight, has a tongue weight 100 lb lighter, is 1 ft 4 in shorter, has 1 ft less interior height and has one more slide-out; the two publish the same GVWR, exterior height, fresh tank, grey tank, black tank and sleeping capacity.

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 (13,000 lb) and the upper loaded tongue estimate (1,950 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). The range starts at the published figure, because loaded is never lighter than that.
03 The Momentum floorplan family
Momentum is Grand Design's toy-hauler family, and it spans four rosters across both tow types. The full-size Momentum fifth wheel is the flagship — a 101-inch wide-body coach on MORryde independent suspension with disc brakes, carrying a 60-gallon dual fuel station. The Momentum G-Class fifth wheel sits below it on MORryde CRE3000 suspension and a Rotoflex pin box with a 30-gallon fuel station, and the G-Class travel trailer puts that same garage behind a bumper pull. The Momentum MAV is the compact end — the lightest and cheapest way into a Momentum garage, and the one roster with no fuel station at all. The 25G on this page is highlighted; each other profiled plan links to its own page. The full MY2027 catalogue runs to 28 floorplans across the four rosters; eight are profiled in depth here and the rest are catalogued on the line hub with their weights.
| Floorplan | Roster | Type | Length | Garage | Sleeps | Notable |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 21G | Momentum G-Class | TT | 26′ 11″ | 14 ft* | 6 | Entry G-Class trailer — only single-slide, lowest GVWR |
| 25G | Momentum G-Class | TT | 30′ 11″ | 13 ft 6 in | 6 | 13 ft 6 in garage, sleeps 6, 2 slides |
| 27G | Momentum G-Class | TT | 32′ 3″ | 14 ft 1 in | 6 | 14 ft 1 in garage, sleeps 6, 1 slide |
| 30G | Momentum G-Class | TT | 34′ 10″ | 20 ft 7 in | 7 | Longest garage in the whole Momentum family |
| 31G | Momentum G-Class | TT | 35′ 11″ | 13 ft | 6 | 13 ft garage, sleeps 6, 2 slides |
| 29GS | Momentum G-Class | TT | 34′ 6″ | 11 ft* | 6 | 11 ft* garage, sleeps 6, 2 slides |
The Momentum G-Class travel trailer brings the G-Class garage to a bumper-pull, for buyers who want a real toy hauler without an in-bed hitch. Laminated aluminum walls, a full-sized rear ramp door, a flat no-wheel-well garage floor and a 30-gallon fuel station are standard across the roster. Tongue weights are factory dry figures — weigh the loaded trailer and confirm against your vehicle's door-jamb placard. Additional G-Class travel-trailer floorplans are catalogued on the line hub.

11 NHTSA safety record
NHTSA holds 19 recall campaigns and 201 owner complaints (model years 2005 on) against the Momentum line. They are counted separately: a recall is a confirmed defect with a remedy, a complaint one owner’s unverified account.
What to look at on a used one. Across the 201 complaints filed on this line the most-reported components are structure (41%), unknown or other (19%) and suspension (10%).
