01 What makes it unique
Northwood lists the Arctic Fox Edge 27SX at 8,770 lb dry, a GVWR of 13,000 lb, a net carrying capacity of 4,230 lb and a tongue weight of 1,185 lb. Its dry weight plus its carrying capacity comes to exactly its GVWR.
It is 31’2″ long and 12’0″ high. Northwood prints its tanks as 100 gal fresh, 55 gal grey, 55 gal black.
Among the 12 Arctic Fox Edge floorplans Northwood’s Arctic Fox Edge model pages on northwoodmfg.com (no model year stated) lists with a published dry weight, it is number 6 from the lightest, in a range from 6,545 lb (Arctic Fox Edge 22GT) to 14,825 lb (Arctic Fox Edge 365VS). Every figure in that comparison is Northwood’s, read from the same set of model pages.
Every number on this page was read on 6 Nov 2026 from Northwood’s own Arctic Fox Edge model pages on northwoodmfg.com (no model year stated) for the Arctic Fox Edge 27SX, which names no model year; the figures are shown as the maker published them, and no year is claimed for them.
How the 27SX differs from the other six Arctic Fox Edge travel trailers. Most distinctive first. How these ranks are worked out.
- GVWR, 13,000 lb: highest of seven; next are the 24SK, 26KX and two others (12,800 lb).
- Dry weight, 8,770 lb: second-heaviest of seven, between the 24SK (8,530 lb) and the 27RK (9,365 lb).
- Length, 31 ft 2 in: second-longest of seven, between the 26MK (30 ft 7 in) and the 27RK (32 ft 3 in).
- Grey tank, 55 gal: second-largest of five, between the 24SK (54 gal) and the 27RK (75 gal).
- Cargo capacity as a share of GVWR, 32.5%: third-smallest of seven, between the 27RK (26.8%) and the 24SK (33.4%).
- Tongue weight as a share of dry weight, 13.5%: third-smallest of seven, between the 27RK (12.8%) and the 22GT (13.8%).
- Cargo capacity, 4,230 lb: fourth-smallest of seven, between the 22GT (3,855 lb) and the 24SK (4,270 lb).
- Tongue weight, 1,185 lb: fourth-lightest of seven, between the 25RB (1,100 lb) and the 27RK (1,195 lb).
- Black tank, 55 gal: largest of seven, level with the 26KX and 26MK; next are the 24SK and 27RK (42 gal).
Next to the 24SK, the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the 27SX is 240 lb heavier by dry weight, has a GVWR 200 lb higher, has 40 lb less cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 85 lb lighter, is 2 ft 3 in longer, stands 2 in taller, has a fresh tank 10 gal larger, has a grey tank 1 gal larger, has a black tank 13 gal larger and sleeps two more.
Next to the 27RK, the nearest heavier floorplan by dry weight, the 27SX is 595 lb lighter by dry weight, has a GVWR 200 lb higher, has 795 lb more cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 10 lb lighter, is 1 ft 1 in shorter, has a grey tank 20 gal smaller, has a black tank 13 gal larger and sleeps two more; the two publish the same exterior height and fresh tank.

A tire recall covers only the brands, lines and DOT date codes it lists, and this page does not know which brand of tire this trailer was built with, so read the brand and DOT code on your own sidewalls before relying on this list. Only 242 of NHTSA’s 788 tire recalls name a size in their summary, so a size with no match is not a clean record (NHTSA recall file, read 12 Oct 2026).

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).

04 Notes on this floorplan
What Northwood does not publish for the Arctic Fox Edge 27SX
Northwood prints no interior height 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
8,530 lb dry and 12,800 lb GVWR, against this model’s 8,770 lb and 13,000 lb.
9,365 lb dry and 12,800 lb GVWR, against this model’s 8,770 lb and 13,000 lb.
06 Loading it for a trip
A full 100-gallon fresh tank is about 830 lb of water (water counts as cargo: 49 CFR 571.120 S10.4.2), 20% of the Arctic Fox Edge 27SX’s 4,230 lb cargo capacity, leaving 3,400 lb (850 lb per rated berth). Across 7 Arctic Fox Edge travel-trailer floorplans the water share runs 17% to 31%, and 3 give up more than this one. Nearest on that share: Arctic Fox Edge 26MK at 19% and Arctic Fox Edge 22GT at 22%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.120 S10.4.3).
07 Where this floorplan sits
Closest sibling: the Arctic Fox Edge 26MK, nearest on the published figures. It differs on 5 of the 8 fields both publish (this plan first): length 31 ft 2 in vs 30 ft 7 in; dry weight 8,770 lb vs 8,480 lb; GVWR 13,000 lb vs 12,800 lb; cargo capacity 4,230 lb vs 4,320 lb; hitch weight 1,185 lb vs 1,320 lb.
