2027 KZ Ridgeway31RL

KZ lists the 2027 Ridgeway 31RL at 10,160 lb unloaded (UVW), with a GVWR of 12,995 lb, a cargo carrying capacity of 2,835 lb and a dry pin weight of 1,871 lb. Its UVW plus its cargo capacity comes to exactly its GVWR.

It is 35' 2" long and 13' 3" high with the air conditioner, with 76 gal fresh, 50 gal grey and 50 gal black tanks. Fresh water weighs about 8.3 lb per US gallon, so a full fresh tank uses roughly 631 lb of the cargo capacity before anything else is loaded.

Among the 7 Ridgeway floorplans KZ lists for 2027 with a published weight, it is number 4 by unloaded weight, in a range from 7,900 lb (R24ML) to 12,630 lb (38TBL). Every figure in that comparison is KZ’s, for the same model year.

Every number on this page was read on 5 Nov 2026 from KZ’s own floorplan page for the Ridgeway 31RL, whose floorplan drawing KZ labels 2027. KZ notes that its UVW reflects a rolling average for the model and that your trailer will vary with optional equipment.

KZ lists 10 Ridgeway floorplans for 2027; this site profiles every one with a published weight, from KZ’s own floorplan pages.
