01 What makes it unique

nuCamp lists the 2026 T@B 400 Black Canyon at 2,885 lb dry and a hitch weight of 450 lb. It prints no GVWR for it.

It is 18' 3" long and 8' 11" high. nuCamp prints its tanks as 25 gal fresh, 17 gal grey, 14 gal black.

Among the 9 T@B floorplans nuCamp’s 2026 T@B / T@G brochure lists with a published dry weight, it is number 6 from the lightest, in a range from 1,932 lb (T@B 320 Lite) to 3,100 lb (T@B 360 CS Boondock). Every figure in that comparison is nuCamp’s, for the same model year.

Every number on this page was read on 5 Nov 2026 from nuCamp’s 2026 T@B / T@G brochure, the maker’s own dated document for model year 2026.

How the T@B 400 Black Canyon differs from the other eight T@B floorplans. Most distinctive first. How these ranks are worked out.

  • Length, 18 ft 3 in: longest of nine, level with the T@B 400 Boondock; next are the T@B 360 CS Black Canyon and T@B 360 CS Boondock (18 ft 2 in).
  • Exterior height, 8 ft 11 in: tallest of nine, level with the T@B 400 Boondock; next are the T@B 360 Black Canyon, T@B 360 Boondock and two others (8 ft 8 in).
  • Interior height, 6 ft 8 in: tallest of nine, level with the T@B 400 Boondock; next are the T@B 360 Black Canyon, T@B 360 Boondock and two others (6 ft 4 in).
  • Black tank, 14 gal: largest of nine, level with the T@B 400 Boondock; next are the Lite, T@B 320 Black Canyon and five others (5 gal).
  • Dry weight, 2,885 lb: shared with the T@B 400 Boondock; of nine, five lighter and two heavier, nearest the T@B 360 Black Canyon and T@B 360 Boondock (2,605 lb) and the T@B 360 CS Black Canyon and T@B 360 CS Boondock (3,100 lb).

Next to the T@B 360 Black Canyon, the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the T@B 400 Black Canyon is 280 lb heavier by dry weight, is 1 ft 7 in longer, stands 3 in taller, has 4 in more interior height and has a black tank 9 gal larger; the two publish the same fresh tank and grey tank.

Next to the T@B 360 CS Black Canyon, the nearest heavier floorplan by dry weight, the T@B 400 Black Canyon is 215 lb lighter by dry weight, is 1 in longer, stands 3 in taller, has 4 in more interior height and has a black tank 9 gal larger; the two publish the same fresh tank and grey tank.

On every figure compared here the T@B 400 Black Canyon publishes the same values as the T@B 400 Boondock, so on these numbers alone they cannot be told apart.

Federal tire recalls naming this size. NHTSA’s recall file names 235/75R15 in 4 tire recalls: 04T001000 (COOPER TIRE & RUBBER CO., 2004; make COOPER; model 23575R15); 14T013000 (ITG Voma Corporation, 2014; make CAPITOL; model PRECISION TRAC II); 15T011000 (Hercules Tire & Rubber Company, 2015; make HERCULES; model ALL TRAC A/T); 17T003000 (Cooper Tire & Rubber Co., 2017; make COOPER; models DISCOVER M+S SPORT, DISCOVERER M+S SPORT). 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).

04 Notes on this floorplan

What nuCamp does not publish for the T@B 400 Black Canyon

nuCamp prints no cargo carrying capacity, GVWR, sleeping capacity 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
nuCamp T@B 360 Boondock

2,605 lb dry and Not published by nuCamp GVWR, against this model’s 2,885 lb and Not published by nuCamp.

Heavier

06 Loading it for a trip

No source publishes a tongue weight for the T@B 400 Black Canyon, so its hitch load has to come from a scale ticket taken with the trailer hitched.

07 Where this floorplan sits

Closest sibling: the T@B 400 Boondock. The two publish identical figures on all 5 fields both carry (length, dry weight, fresh tank, grey tank, black tank), so the published record does not tell them apart; what separates them is the floorplan itself.

Either side of it by dry weight: T@B 360 Boondock is 280 lb lighter (2,605 lb dry); T@B 400 Boondock matches it at 2,885 lb dry.

11 NHTSA safety record

NHTSA holds 4 recall campaigns against the T@B line (a recall and a complaint are not the same thing).

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 T@B line page.

Earlier model years

The record at the top of this page is the 400 Black Canyon from 2026. The maker’s own documents for earlier model years also list the 400 Black Canyon, and those 2 years are, each from its own brochure printed here: 2024 to 2025. The figures change from year to year, so check the year on the trailer’s own label. A field a year’s brochure does not print reads “Not published” and is never filled from another year.

1 recall campaign filed with NHTSA names the T@B for model year 2024:

No owner complaint filed with NHTSA names the T@B for model year 2024. NHTSA files recalls and complaints by line and model year, not by floorplan, so a campaign listed here may not affect every T@B floorplan; the recall notice says which units it covers.
