01 What makes it unique
Northwood lists the Arctic Fox NXT 365VS at 14,505 lb dry, a GVWR of 16,000 lb, a net carrying capacity of 1,495 lb and a pin weight of 2,840 lb. Its dry weight plus its carrying capacity comes to exactly its GVWR.
It is 39’8″ long and 13’5″ high. Northwood prints its tanks as 88 gal fresh, 67 gal grey, 65 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 12 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 365VS, which names no model year; the figures are shown as the maker published them, and no year is claimed for them.

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 (16,000 lb) and the upper loaded pin estimate (4,000 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 Northwood does not publish for the Arctic Fox NXT 365VS
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
13,860 lb dry and 16,300 lb GVWR, against this model’s 14,505 lb and 16,000 lb.
06 Loading it for a trip
A full 88-gallon fresh tank is about 730 lb of water (water counts as cargo: 49 CFR 571.120 S10.4.2), 49% of the Arctic Fox NXT 365VS’s 1,495 lb cargo capacity, leaving 765 lb (191 lb per rated berth). Across 5 Arctic Fox NXT fifth-wheel floorplans the water share runs 24% to 49%, and this plan’s is the highest. Nearest on that share: Arctic Fox NXT 325MK at 30%. 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 NXT 325MK, nearest on the published figures. It differs on 5 of the 9 fields both publish (this plan first): length 39 ft 8 in vs 36 ft 10 in; dry weight 14,505 lb vs 13,860 lb; GVWR 16,000 lb vs 16,300 lb; cargo capacity 1,495 lb vs 2,440 lb; hitch weight 2,840 lb vs 3,120 lb. They match on sleeps, fresh tank, grey tank and black tank.
