01 What makes it unique
Northwood lists the Nash 25KT at 6,950 lb dry, a GVWR of 9,200 lb, a net carrying capacity of 2,250 lb and a tongue weight of 660 lb. Its dry weight plus its carrying capacity comes to exactly its GVWR.
It is 28’5″ long and 11’6″ incl. AC high. Northwood prints its tanks as 80 gal fresh, 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 9 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 25KT, which names no model year; the figures are shown as the maker published them, and no year is claimed for them.
How the 25KT differs from the other eight Nash floorplans. Most distinctive first. How these ranks are worked out.
- Dry weight, 6,950 lb: heaviest of nine; next is the 25DS (6,845 lb).
- Tongue weight as a share of dry weight, 9.5%: second-smallest of nine, between the 24SD (9.1%) and the 19BS (9.6%).
- Length, 28 ft 5 in: third-longest of nine, between the 23CK (27 ft 8 in) and the 24B (28 ft 8 in).
- Cargo capacity, 2,250 lb: fourth-smallest of nine, between the 23D (1,760 lb) and the 25DS (2,355 lb).
- Cargo capacity as a share of GVWR, 24.5%: fourth-smallest of nine, between the 18FM and 23D (23.5%) and the 25DS (25.6%).
- Tongue weight, 660 lb: fourth-heaviest of nine, between the 23D (606 lb) and the 25DS (755 lb).
- Fresh tank, 80 gal: smallest of nine, level with the 17K, 24SD and 25DS; next are the 18FM, 19BS and three others (82 gal).
Next to the 25DS, the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the 25KT is 105 lb heavier by dry weight, has 105 lb less cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 95 lb lighter, is 9 in shorter and sleeps two fewer; the two publish the same GVWR, exterior height, fresh tank and black tank.

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 25KT
Northwood prints no interior height, grey-tank 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
6,845 lb dry and 9,200 lb GVWR, against this model’s 6,950 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), 30% of the Nash 25KT’s 2,250 lb cargo capacity, leaving 1,586 lb (396 lb per rated berth). Across 9 Nash floorplans the water share runs 24% to 43%, and 3 give up more than this one. Nearest on that share: Nash 25DS at 28% and Nash 23D at 39%. 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 24SD, nearest on the published figures. It differs on 4 of the 8 fields both publish (this plan first): length 28 ft 5 in vs 27 ft 3 in; dry weight 6,950 lb vs 6,450 lb; cargo capacity 2,250 lb vs 2,750 lb; hitch weight 660 lb vs 590 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.
