01 What makes it unique

Northwood lists the Arctic Fox NXT 24SK at 8,025 lb dry, a GVWR of 12,800 lb, a net carrying capacity of 4,775 lb and a tongue weight of 1,000 lb. Its dry weight plus its carrying capacity comes to exactly its GVWR.

It is 28’11” long and 11’10” high. Northwood prints its tanks as 90 gal fresh, 54 gal grey, 42 gal black.

Among the 12 Arctic Fox NXT floorplans Northwood’s Arctic Fox NXT model pages on northwoodmfg.com (no model year stated) lists with a published dry weight, it is number 3 from the lightest, in a range from 5,910 lb (Arctic Fox NXT 22GT) to 14,505 lb (Arctic Fox NXT 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 NXT model pages on northwoodmfg.com (no model year stated) for the Arctic Fox NXT 24SK, which names no model year; the figures are shown as the maker published them, and no year is claimed for them.

How the 24SK differs from the other six Arctic Fox NXT travel trailers. Most distinctive first. How these ranks are worked out.

  • Cargo capacity, 4,775 lb: largest of seven; next is the 26MK (4,760 lb).
  • Fresh tank, 90 gal: smallest of seven; next are the 22GT, 25RB and four others (100 gal).
  • Cargo capacity as a share of GVWR, 37.3%: second-largest of seven, between the 26MK (37.2%) and the 22GT (43.2%).
  • Dry weight, 8,025 lb: third-lightest of seven, between the 25RB (6,935 lb) and the 26MK (8,040 lb).
  • Length, 28 ft 11 in: third-shortest of seven, between the 25RB (27 ft 3 in) and the 26KX (29 ft 9 in).
  • Grey tank, 54 gal: third-smallest of five, between the 25RB (44 gal) and the 27SX (55 gal).
  • Tongue weight as a share of dry weight, 12.5%: largest of seven, level with the 26MK; next is the 27SX (12.3%).
  • Sleeping capacity, 2: smallest of seven, level with the 27RK; next is the 25RB (3).
  • Tongue weight, 1,000 lb: shared with the 27SX; of seven, four lighter and one heavier, nearest the 26KX (915 lb) and the 26MK (1,005 lb).
  • Exterior height, 11 ft 10 in: lowest of seven, level with the 22GT and 25RB; next are the 26KX, 26MK and two others (12 ft).
  • Black tank, 42 gal: shared with the 27RK; of seven, two smaller and three larger, nearest the 22GT and 25RB (35 gal) and the 26KX, 26MK and 27SX (55 gal).

Federal tire recalls naming this size. NHTSA’s recall file names ST235/85R16 in one tire recall: 21T018000 (Sailun Tire Americas, Inc., 2021; make SAILUN; models BLACKHAWK, BLACKLION, IRONHEAD, ROADX, SAILUN). 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

Tow rating needed12,800 lb
Published tongue weight1,000 lb
Loaded tongue weight, rule of thumb1,280–1,920 lb
Receiver hitch rating needed12,800 lb towed / 1,920 lb tongue
Payload check. Budget loaded, not dry: subtract the loaded range, every passenger, the bed and cab load and a weight-distributing hitch 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 (12,800 lb) and the upper loaded tongue estimate (1,920 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 NXT 24SK

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

Lighter
Northwood Arctic Fox NXT 25RB

6,935 lb dry and 10,600 lb GVWR, against this model’s 8,025 lb and 12,800 lb.

Heavier
Northwood Arctic Fox NXT 26MK

8,040 lb dry and 12,800 lb GVWR, against this model’s 8,025 lb and 12,800 lb.

06 Loading it for a trip

A full 90-gallon fresh tank is about 747 lb of water (water counts as cargo: 49 CFR 571.120 S10.4.2), 16% of the Arctic Fox NXT 24SK’s 4,775 lb cargo capacity, leaving 4,028 lb (2,014 lb per rated berth). Across 7 Arctic Fox NXT travel-trailer floorplans the water share runs 16% to 23%, and this plan’s is the lowest. Nearest on that share: Arctic Fox NXT 26MK at 17%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.120 S10.4.3).
