2026 Forest River Puma Camping Edition120RKCE

The Puma Camping Edition 120RKCE has 1,246 lbs of cargo capacity between 2,614 lbs dry and its 3,860 lbs GVWR, 32% of that rating; filling its 34-gallon fresh tank at 8.3 lb a gallon uses 282 lbs of it (how to read trailer weights).

Tongue weight is 360 lbs, 14% of the dry weight as published; it rises as the trailer is loaded and counts against the tow vehicle’s tongue-weight and payload limits (tongue weight by size).

Off hookups: 60 gallons of grey and black capacity against 34 gallons of fresh water, so fresh water runs out first (tank sizes by length).

Against the rest of the Puma Camping Edition roster this is the 5th of 30 floorplans by dry weight, in a line that runs from 2,295 lbs to 7,018 lbs. It sits in the lighter third of the line.

Plan the tow on loaded weight, not the 2,614 lbs dry figure: half the published cargo capacity brings this plan to about 3,237 lbs, and the published GVWR of 3,860 lbs is the limit (how to read trailer weights).

Forest River’s line listing and this floorplan’s own factory page agree on all 4 shared figures. Dry weight plus cargo capacity equals the published GVWR exactly. A missing row means Forest River does not publish that figure (how figures are verified).

Forest River publishes no floorplan description for this plan in the channel this page is built from - only the numeric specification block. Rather than describe a layout from the floorplan code, which would be a guess dressed as a fact, this page carries what the factory publishes and says where it stops. 120RKCE is a Puma Camping Edition designation and this site does not decode it into a layout claim.

How the 120RKCE differs from the other 29 Puma Camping Edition floorplans. Most distinctive first. Sibling pages may cover other model years than this one (2026). How these ranks are worked out.

• Dry weight, 2,614 lb: fifth-lightest of 30, between the 17COUPLE (2,600 lb) and the 121RKCE and 122BHCE (2,664 lb).
• Cargo capacity as a share of GVWR, 32.3%: fifth-largest of 27, between the 17COUPLE (31.6%) and the 141THCE (32.7%).
• Tongue weight as a share of dry weight, 13.8%: sixth-largest of 30, between the 123RDCE (13.6%) and the 263BHCE (13.9%).
• Length, 16 ft: shortest of 30, level with the 121RKCE, 122BHCE and 123RDCE; next are the 130BHCE, 131RBCE and 132RKCE (16 ft 1 in).
• GVWR, 3,860 lb: eighth-lowest of 30, between the 12FBCE (3,855 lb) and the 122BHCE and 123RDCE (3,865 lb).
• Tongue weight, 360 lb: eighth-lightest of 30, between the 12FBCE (355 lb) and the 123RDCE (365 lb).
• Cargo capacity, 1,246 lb: ninth-smallest of 30, between the 122BHCE and 17COUPLE (1,200 lb) and the 132RKCE (1,425 lb).
• Exterior height, 10 ft 3 in: shared with the 132RKCE; of 30, five lower and 23 taller, nearest the 12FBCE, 130BHCE and two others (10 ft 2 in) and the 210RKCE (10 ft 4 in).
• Black tank, 30 gal: smallest of 30, level with the 121RKCE, 122BHCE and eleven others; next are the 141THCE, 20BHCE and fourteen others (35 gal).

• Grey tank, 30 gal: smallest of 30, level with the 121RKCE, 122BHCE and twelve others; next are the 20BHCE, 20RLCE and five others (35 gal).

Next to the 17COUPLE (2027 page), the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the 120RKCE is 14 lb heavier by dry weight, has a GVWR 60 lb higher, has 46 lb more cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 35 lb heavier, is 4 ft shorter and stands 1 in taller; the two publish the same fresh tank, grey tank and black tank.

Next to the 121RKCE, the nearest heavier floorplan by dry weight, the 120RKCE is 50 lb lighter by dry weight, has a GVWR 20 lb higher, has 70 lb more cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 20 lb heavier and stands 2 in lower; the two publish the same length, fresh tank, grey tank and black tank.

Camping Edition is where Puma starts, and the range is wide enough that the badge on the side tells you very little on its own. The lightest plans here are single-axle trailers under 2,700 lbs dry; the heaviest are past 7,000 lbs dry. Cargo capacity runs 671 to 1,592 lbs and does not track length in the way buyers expect, so the plan that fits the family may not be the plan that carries their gear. Forest River publishes a GVWR for every plan in this class, which is the number to tow against.

A full 34-gallon fresh tank is about 282 lb of water (water counts as cargo: 49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.2), 23% of the 120RKCE’s 1,246 lb cargo capacity, leaving 964 lb. Across 30 Puma Camping Edition floorplans the water share runs 19% to 42%, and 22 give up more than this one. Nearest on that share: Puma Camping Edition 283BHCE at 22% and Puma Camping Edition 122BHCE at 24%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.3).
