Highland RidgeRange Lite

Range Lite is Highland Ridge's half-ton travel-trailer line and the longest-running roster the manufacturer publishes, live in every model year from 2023 to 2027. Eight floorplans reach a full profile for 2026, from 4,935 lb dry on a 23-foot 4-inch tandem to 6,960 lb on a 33-foot 2-inch, with dry tongue weights of 605 to 845 lb. That is a narrow band by travel-trailer standards and it is the point of the line: every plan is aimed at the same tow vehicle. Dry weight plus cargo capacity equals the published GVWR exactly on all eight.

Across the whole Range Lite roster the published dry weights run from 2,560 lbs to 6,960 lbs, cargo capacities from 940 lbs to 1,890 lbs, and dry tongue weights from 220 lbs to 845 lbs. Exterior lengths run 17 to 33 feet. Those are Highland Ridge's figures for a standard build, captured from the factory roster block and confirmed against each floorplan's own factory page.

Highland Ridge publishes a GVWR for 9 of the 9 floorplans, and on 9 of those the arithmetic ties out exactly: dry weight plus cargo capacity equals the published rating to the pound. That check is run on every plan before it is profiled here, and a plan that fails it is catalogued with the disagreement printed rather than quietly corrected.

8 of the 9 Range Lite floorplans are profiled in full below, each on its own page with the complete factory weight, dimension and tank block. The profiled set is spread across the weight range rather than taken from one end of it, so the lightest and heaviest plans in the line are both represented. Every plan profiled here publishes a full field set and, where Highland Ridge publishes a GVWR, passes the dry-plus-cargo arithmetic check.

The remaining 1 Range Lite floorplan is catalogued here from the factory's published figures. A plan is catalogued rather than profiled when the factory has not yet published its full field set, when its own published figures disagree with each other, or simply because the profiled set is capped. Nothing in this table is estimated.

Sort this line by the constraint you actually have. If the tow vehicle is fixed, start at the weight column: the lightest plan in the roster is the 14LW at 2,560 lbs dry and the heaviest is the 280MKI at 6,960 lbs, and that spread is wide enough that the two ends are not the same buying decision. If the tow vehicle is not fixed, sort by cargo capacity instead - the 280MKI carries the most at 1,890 lbs, and payload is the number that runs out first on a long trip.

Do not sort by floorplan number. Highland Ridge's codes encode length loosely and layout not at all, and this site does not decode them into layout claims. Two plans with adjacent numbers in this roster can differ by hundreds of pounds of dry weight and by more than that in dry tongue weight, which is the figure that determines what the tow vehicle has to be.

Where Highland Ridge publishes a floorplan description it is quoted on the plan page and identified as factory marketing copy rather than a specification. Where it publishes none, the plan page says so instead of describing a layout that nobody has verified. That is the difference between a catalogue and a brochure.
