01 What makes it unique

Highland Ridge lists the 2020 Open Range Ultra Lite UT2102RB at 5,560 lb dry, a GVWR of 7,000 lb, a net carrying capacity of 1,440 lb and a tongue weight of 505 lb. Its dry weight plus its carrying capacity comes to exactly its GVWR.

It is 11' 2" high. Highland Ridge prints its tanks as 51 gal fresh, 58 gal grey, 29 gal black.

Among the 7 Open Range Ultra Lite floorplans Highland Ridge’s Open Range Ultra Lite brochure (filed under 2020 on its own site; the brochure prints no year) lists with a published dry weight, it is number 2 from the lightest, in a range from 5,465 lb (Open Range Ultra Lite UT2410RL) to 6,815 lb (Open Range Ultra Lite UT2910RL). Every figure in that comparison is Highland Ridge’s, for the same model year.

Every number on this page was read on 5 Nov 2026 from Highland Ridge’s Open Range Ultra Lite brochure (filed under 2020 on its own site; the brochure prints no year); model year 2020 comes from where the maker files it on its own site, not from the document’s text.

How the UT2102RB differs from the other six Open Range Ultra Lite floorplans. Most distinctive first. How these ranks are worked out.

  • GVWR, 7,000 lb: lowest of seven; next is the UT2402BH (7,250 lb).
  • Dry weight, 5,560 lb: second-lightest of seven, between the UT2410RL (5,465 lb) and the UT2402BH (5,895 lb).
  • Tongue weight, 505 lb: second-lightest of seven, between the UT2410RL (500 lb) and the UT2802BH (520 lb).
  • Cargo capacity as a share of GVWR, 20.6%: third-largest of seven, between the UT2804RK (18.9%) and the UT2910RL (22.6%).
  • Exterior height, 11 ft 2 in: tallest of seven, level with the UT2410RL; next are the UT2402BH, UT2602RL and three others (11 ft 1 in).
  • Tongue weight as a share of dry weight, 9.1%: shared with the UT2410RL; of seven, one smaller and four larger, nearest the UT2802BH (8.4%) and the UT2804RK (11.4%).
  • Cargo capacity, 1,440 lb: shared with the UT2804RK; of seven, three smaller and two larger, nearest the UT2602RL (1,365 lb) and the UT2410RL (1,935 lb).

Next to the UT2410RL, the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the UT2102RB is 95 lb heavier by dry weight, has a GVWR 400 lb lower, has 495 lb less cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 5 lb heavier and has a grey tank 29 gal larger; the two publish the same exterior height, interior height, fresh tank and black tank.

Next to the UT2402BH, the nearest heavier floorplan by dry weight, the UT2102RB is 335 lb lighter by dry weight, has a GVWR 250 lb lower, has 85 lb more cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 300 lb lighter and stands 1 in taller; the two publish the same interior height, fresh tank, grey tank and black tank.

Towing it

Published tongue weight505 lb
Loaded tongue weight, rule of thumb700–1,050 lb
Receiver hitch rating needed7,000 lb towed / 1,050 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 (7,000 lb) and the upper loaded tongue estimate (1,050 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 Highland Ridge does not publish for the Open Range Ultra Lite UT2102RB

Highland Ridge prints no 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.

Source for 2019. Printed in Highland Ridge’s Open Range Ultra Lite brochure (www.highlandridgerv.com). The document itself prints no model year; Highland Ridge files it under 2019 on its own brochure page. Dry weight plus cargo capacity equals the printed GVWR exactly (5,495 + 1,905 = 7,400 lb). Nothing in this record is copied from another model year.

NHTSA record for 2019 Open Range Ultra Lite

2 recall campaigns filed with NHTSA name the Open Range Ultra Lite for model year 2019:

No owner complaint filed with NHTSA names the Open Range Ultra Lite for model year 2019. NHTSA files recalls and complaints by line and model year, not by floorplan, so a campaign listed here may not affect every Open Range Ultra Lite floorplan; the recall notice says which units it covers.
