01 What makes it unique
Northwood lists the Nash 24SD at 6,450 lb dry, a GVWR of 9,200 lb, a net carrying capacity of 2,750 lb and a tongue weight of 590 lb. Its dry weight plus its carrying capacity comes to exactly its GVWR.
It is 27’3″ long and 11’6″ incl. AC high. Northwood prints its tanks as 80 gal fresh, 42 gal grey, 35 gal black.
Among the 9 Nash floorplans Northwood’s Nash model pages on northwoodmfg.com (no model year stated) lists with a published dry weight, it is number 5 from the lightest, in a range from 4,766 lb (Nash 17K) to 6,950 lb (Nash 25KT). 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 Nash model pages on northwoodmfg.com (no model year stated) for the Nash 24SD, which names no model year; the figures are shown as the maker published them, and no year is claimed for them.
How the 24SD differs from the other eight Nash floorplans. Most distinctive first. How these ranks are worked out.
- Cargo capacity, 2,750 lb: largest of nine; next is the 24B (2,740 lb).
- Tongue weight as a share of dry weight, 9.1%: smallest of nine; next is the 25KT (9.5%).
- Cargo capacity as a share of GVWR, 29.9%: second-largest of nine, between the 24B (29.8%) and the 17K (35.6%).
- Tongue weight, 590 lb: fourth-lightest of nine, between the 17K (589 lb) and the 23D (606 lb).
- Dry weight, 6,450 lb: fifth-lightest of nine, between the 19BS (5,825 lb) and the 24B (6,460 lb).
- Length, 27 ft 3 in: fifth-shortest of nine, between the 23D (25 ft 10 in) and the 23CK (27 ft 8 in).
- Fresh tank, 80 gal: smallest of nine, level with the 17K, 25DS and 25KT; next are the 18FM, 19BS and three others (82 gal).
- Grey tank, 42 gal: shared with the 23D and 24B; of eight, two smaller and three larger, nearest the 25DS (40 gal) and the 18FM, 19BS and 23CK (47 gal).
Next to the 19BS, the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the 24SD is 625 lb heavier by dry weight, has a GVWR 1,800 lb higher, has 1,175 lb more cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 30 lb heavier, is 3 ft 8 in longer, has a fresh tank 2 gal smaller, has a grey tank 5 gal smaller and has a black tank 7 gal smaller; the two publish the same exterior height and sleeping capacity.
Next to the 24B, the nearest heavier floorplan by dry weight, the 24SD is 10 lb lighter by dry weight, has 10 lb more cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 168 lb lighter, is 1 ft 5 in shorter, has a fresh tank 2 gal smaller and sleeps four fewer; the two publish the same GVWR, exterior height, grey tank and black tank.

How these published figures sit against the rest of the catalogue: travel trailer tongue weight by size; fresh, grey and black tank sizes; camper trailer size chart.
Federal tire recalls naming this size. NHTSA’s recall file names ST235/80R16 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
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 (9,200 lb) and the upper loaded tongue estimate (1,380 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 Nash 24SD
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
5,825 lb dry and 7,400 lb GVWR, against this model’s 6,450 lb and 9,200 lb.
6,460 lb dry and 9,200 lb GVWR, against this model’s 6,450 lb and 9,200 lb.
06 Loading it for a trip
A full 80-gallon fresh tank is about 664 lb of water (water counts as cargo: 49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.2), 24% of the Nash 24SD’s 2,750 lb cargo capacity, leaving 2,086 lb (522 lb per rated berth). Across 9 Nash floorplans the water share runs 24% to 43%, and this plan’s is the lowest. Nearest on that share: Nash 24B at 25%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.3).
07 Where this floorplan sits
Closest sibling: the Nash 25KT, nearest on the published figures. It differs on 4 of the 8 fields both publish (this plan first): length 27 ft 3 in vs 28 ft 5 in; dry weight 6,450 lb vs 6,950 lb; cargo capacity 2,750 lb vs 2,250 lb; hitch weight 590 lb vs 660 lb. They match on sleeps, GVWR, fresh tank and black tank.

11 NHTSA safety record
NHTSA holds 3 recall campaigns and 1 owner complaint (model years 2005 on) against the Nash line (a recall and a complaint are not the same thing).
Too few reports to show a pattern. 1 complaint has been filed on this line — not enough to say what fails most often. It covers trailer hitches.
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 Nash line page.
