01 What makes it unique

The North Point 380FBRK is on Jayco’s 2027 North Point roster. Jayco’s own floorplan page lists it at 42 ft 7 in pin to bumper, 12 ft 6 in tall (13 ft 4 in with the air conditioner) and 8 ft 6 in wide (13 ft 6 in with the slides out), sleeping up to 4.

Jayco publishes all four weights: an unloaded vehicle weight of 14,810 lb, a cargo carrying capacity of 3,390 lb and a GVWR of 18,200 lb (unloaded weight plus cargo capacity equals the GVWR exactly), with a dry hitch weight of 2,855 lb. Tanks are 75 gal fresh, 87 gal grey and 87 gal black, with 60 lb of propane.

Nearest on Jayco’s 2027 North Point roster by unloaded weight: 381CKRE (14,805 lb UVW, 3,190 lb CCC) and 383FLRB (14,840 lb UVW, 3,160 lb CCC).

How the 380FBRK differs from the other thirteen North Point floorplans. Most distinctive first. Each rank counts only the siblings that publish that field, and a figure most of them share is left out. Not every one of these pages covers the same model years as this one (2027); each figure is the one its own page prints, so a rank compares pages, not one model year.

  • Cargo capacity, 3,390 lb: largest of fourteen; next is the 361RLBH (3,340 lb).
  • Cargo capacity as a share of GVWR, 18.6%: largest of fourteen; next is the 340CKTS (18.4%).
  • Dry weight, 14,810 lb: fifth-lightest of fourteen, between the 381CKRE (14,805 lb) and the 387FBTS (14,830 lb).
  • GVWR, 18,200 lb: sixth-highest of fourteen, between the 377RLBH (18,100 lb) and the 361RLBH (18,600 lb).
  • Dry pin weight, 2,855 lb: sixth-lightest of fourteen, between the 377RLBH (2,800 lb) and the 390CKDS (2,950 lb).
  • Dry pin weight as a share of dry weight, 19.3%: seventh-smallest of fourteen, between the 310RLTS (18.8%) and the 375TBDB (19.4%).
  • Length, 42 ft 7 in: seventh-longest of fourteen, between the 361RLBH and 383FLRB (42 ft 2 in) and the 377RLBH and 387FBTS (42 ft 11 in).
  • Exterior height, 12 ft 6 in: lowest of fourteen, level with the 361RLBH, 381CKRE and 383FLRB; next are the 340CKTS, 375TBDB and 391TBBH (12 ft 8 in).
  • Sleeping capacity, 4: shared with the 310RLTS, 340CKTS and two others; of fourteen, one smaller and eight larger, nearest the 365RKTS (3) and the 361RLBH and 383FLRB (6).
  • Black tank, 87 gal: shared with the 383FLRB, 387FBTS and two others; of fourteen, seven smaller and two larger, nearest the 382FLRB (74 gal) and the 375TBDB and 390CKDS (100 gal).

Next to the 381CKRE, the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the 380FBRK is 5 lb heavier by dry weight, has a GVWR 205 lb higher, has 200 lb more cargo capacity, has a dry pin weight 155 lb lighter, is 1 ft 10 in longer, has 1 in less interior height and has a black tank 37 gal larger; the two publish the same exterior height, fresh tank, grey tank and sleeping capacity.

Next to the 387FBTS (2021–2026 page), the nearest heavier floorplan by dry weight, the 380FBRK is 20 lb lighter by dry weight, has a GVWR 550 lb higher, has 570 lb more cargo capacity, has a dry pin weight 80 lb heavier, is 4 in shorter and stands 9 in lower; the two publish the same fresh tank, grey tank, black tank and sleeping capacity.

Towing it

Published dry pin weight2,855 lb
Loaded pin weight, rule of thumb2,855–4,550 lb
In-bed fifth-wheel hitch rating needed18,200 lb towed / 4,550 lb pin
Payload check. Budget loaded, not dry: subtract the loaded range, every passenger and the bed and cab load from the payload on your tow vehicle’s door-pillar placard (49 CFR 571.110 S4.3).

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 (18,200 lb) and the upper loaded pin estimate (4,550 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 dry figure, because loaded is never lighter than dry.

03 The North Point floorplan family

North Point is Jayco's second luxury full-profile fifth wheel, positioned just below the flagship Pinnacle — a cross-shop against Keystone's Montana, Grand Design's Reflection, Forest River's Cedar Creek and Sabre and Alliance's Avenue. Every floorplan with a page here is linked below. The 380FBRK on this page is highlighted.

North Point is Jayco's second luxury full-profile fifth wheel, positioned just below the flagship Pinnacle on the same 102-inch wide-body Magnum Truss XL6 platform. Every North Point rides a 12-inch steel I-beam with an 8/10-inch monster-beam drop frame, on Dexter axles with ABS, 17.5-inch 16-ply H-rated tires with SpartanLync TPMS, a MORryde CRE-3000 rubberized suspension (the flagship Pinnacle uses the heavier LRE-4000) and a MORryde rubber pin box, with six-point hydraulic auto-leveling, Stronghold VBL laminated fiberglass walls, a Magnum Truss XL6 roof, Climate Shield zero-degree insulation and an enclosed heated underbelly. The residential package is standard: a GE 21-cubic-foot 12-volt refrigerator, a GE Profile 24-inch range and 30-inch convection microwave, solid-surface counters, two 15,000-BTU Whisper Quiet air conditioners, a 40,000-BTU furnace, an on-demand tankless water heater, a central vacuum, the Overlander II solar package and JAYCOMMAND smart controls. Dry weight, GVWR, CCC and pin are the factory figures and dry weight plus CCC equals GVWR exactly on every plan. Real loaded pin weights run higher — always weigh the loaded coach and confirm against your truck's payload and rear-axle ratings.

06 Loading it for a trip

A full 75-gallon fresh tank is about 622 lb of water (water counts as cargo: 49 CFR 571.120 S10.4.2), 18% of the 380FBRK’s 3,390 lb cargo capacity, leaving 2,768 lb (692 lb per rated berth). Across 14 North Point floorplans the water share runs 18% to 25%, and this plan’s is the lowest. Nearest on that share: North Point 361RLBH at 19%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.120 S10.4.3).

09 What this page publishes, and what it does not

14 of the 18 fields this catalogue tracks are published for the 380FBRK. Not published: slide count, axle count, refrigerator, air conditioning.

Sourcing rules: methodology.

11 NHTSA safety record

NHTSA holds 16 recall campaigns and 27 owner complaints (model years 2005 on) against the North Point 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 27 complaints filed on this line the most-reported components are suspension (52%), equipment (11%) and wheels (11%).

Recall coverage here is not complete, and complaints are owners’ unverified reports (how this record is built). Check a specific VIN at NHTSA before you buy. Full tables are on the North Point line page.
