01 What makes it unique
The Rockwood Signature Fifth Wheels R374DBH leaves Forest River's factory at 9,661 lbs dry with 2,084 lbs of cargo capacity. Forest River publishes no GVWR for this line, so the loaded rating is not quoted on this page and is not computed from the other two figures. What the cargo number covers is defined by the factory: fresh water, gear, food, batteries and every dealer-installed accessory come out of it. Fresh water is 8.3 lb per gallon, so filling the 54-gallon fresh tank spends 448 lbs of the 2,084 lbs before anything else goes in.
Pin weight is 1,745 lbs, 18% of the dry weight as published; it rises as the trailer is loaded and comes off the truck’s payload, not its towing rating, so check it against the payload on your own door sticker (pin weight and payload).
Off hookups: 145 gallons of grey and black capacity against 54 gallons of fresh water, so fresh water runs out first (tank sizes by length).
Against the rest of the Rockwood Signature Fifth Wheels roster this is the 6th of 19 floorplans by dry weight, in a line that runs from 7,523 lbs to 12,824 lbs. It sits in the lighter third of the line.
Plan the tow on loaded weight, not the 9,661 lbs dry figure: half the published cargo capacity brings this plan to about 10,703 lbs. Forest River publishes no loaded rating for this line, so the ceiling is the one on the trailer’s own weight label (how to read trailer weights).
Forest River’s line listing and this floorplan’s own factory page agree on all 4 shared figures. No GVWR is published for this line, so dry plus cargo has no rating to check against. A missing row means Forest River does not publish that figure (how figures are verified).
Forest River's own description of this floorplan reads: “This spacious fifth wheel offers comfort for the whole family with a private front bedroom featuring a queen (or optional king) bed, mid-living area with theater seating, fireplace, and a king U-dinette. The rear bunkhouse includes multiple bunks and washer/dryer prep. A full kitchen, pantry, and outside kitchen make meal prep easy, while ample storage, pass-thru compartments, and dual awnings enhance outdoor living.” That is the factory's marketing copy rather than a specification, and nothing in it is treated as a verified field on this page - layout descriptions, sleeping arrangements and feature claims in factory copy are not carried into the spec table unless the factory also publishes them as specifications.
How the R374DBH differs from the other eighteen Rockwood Signature Fifth Wheels. Most distinctive first. Sibling pages may cover other model years than this one (2027). How these ranks are worked out.
- Dry weight, 9,661 lb: sixth-lightest of nineteen, between the 332SRL (8,943 lb) and the 329SRK (9,762 lb).
- Cargo capacity, 2,084 lb: ninth-largest of nineteen, between the R371RK (2,051 lb) and the 339SBH (2,092 lb).
- Pin weight, 1,745 lb: ninth-heaviest of nineteen, between the 8288SB (1,699 lb) and the 8291RK (1,820 lb).
- Pin weight as a share of dry weight, 18.1%: shared with the 401SFB; of nineteen, thirteen smaller and four larger, nearest the 402SFL (17.9%) and the R361RLS (18.2%).
- Grey tank, 92 gal: shared with the 404SRK, R361RLS and R371RK; of nineteen, twelve smaller and three larger, nearest the 8291RK, 8298KS and 8299SB (90 gal) and the 290SFK (108 gal).
- Exterior height, 13 ft 4 in: shared with the 401SFB, 404SRK and three others; of nineteen, eleven lower and two taller, nearest the 290SFK (13 ft 3 in) and the 402SFL and 403SDB (13 ft 5 in).
- Black tank, 53 gal: shared with the 402SFL, 404SRK and three others; of nineteen, eleven smaller and two larger, nearest the 8288SB, 8291RK and three others (50 gal) and the 401SFB and 403SDB (92 gal).
- Length, 36 ft 10 in: shared with the R361RLS, R371RK and R372RL; of nineteen, eight shorter and seven longer, nearest the 339SBH (36 ft 7 in) and the 8288SB and 8291RK (37 ft).
Next to the 332SRL, the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the R374DBH is 718 lb heavier by dry weight, has 38 lb more cargo capacity, has a pin weight 210 lb heavier, is 1 ft 10 in longer, stands 4 in taller, has a fresh tank 1 gal larger, has a grey tank 14 gal larger and has a black tank 14 gal larger.
Next to the 329SRK, the nearest heavier floorplan by dry weight, the R374DBH is 101 lb lighter by dry weight, has 342 lb more cargo capacity, has a pin weight 241 lb heavier, is 3 ft 4 in longer, stands 3 in taller, has a grey tank 14 gal larger and has a black tank 14 gal larger; the two publish the same fresh tank.

03 The Rockwood Signature Fifth Wheels floorplan family
Signature is where Rockwood stops being a bumper-pull range. Across the fourteen plans profiled here dry weight runs 7,523 to 12,824 lb and pin weight runs 1,280 to 2,205 lb, which is a payload question before it is a towing one -- pin weight lands on the truck's rear axle, and the heavier plans ask for more of it once passengers and a hitch are in. Pin sits in a band of 15.4 to 19.3 percent of dry weight across the whole roster, so the grouping scales predictably rather than hiding a nose-heavy outlier. Cargo capacity runs 1,461 to 2,674 lb and does not track size: the heaviest plan carries the most, but the second-least accommodating plan is a mid-weight one, so the spread is worth reading per plan rather than by length. Fresh water is 53 or 54 gallons on every plan in the roster; grey runs 78 to 131 gallons and black 39 to 92, so waste capacity is the variable that separates these plans off-grid, not fresh.

Signature is the only Rockwood grouping built as a fifth wheel, and Forest River publishes fourteen floorplans for 2027 under two headings: nine as Signature Fifth Wheels and five as Signature Traveler Series Fifth Wheels, the lighter group at 7,523 to 9,762 lb dry against 8,764 to 12,824 lb. Every plan in the roster publishes dry weight, cargo capacity, pin weight, all three exterior dimensions and all three tank capacities, and thirteen of the fourteen carry a factory floorplan description. No plan publishes a GVWR, so loaded rating is shown as not published throughout and is never derived from dry weight plus cargo capacity. Sleeping capacity, axle count, tire size and MSRP are not published in this channel either, and are absent rather than estimated. Two cargo figures changed on Forest River's own floorplan pages between this site's readings of 31 Jul and 21 Oct 2026: the 301SRK's moved from 7,523 lb, the same figure to the pound as its dry weight, to 2,440 lb, and the R361RLS's from 1,730 lb to 2,197 lb. Both plans are profiled from the revised figures, and the earlier ones are not used.
04 Notes on this floorplan
What Forest River does not publish for this line
Sleeping capacity, axle count, tire size and MSRP are absent from Forest River's specification channel for Rockwood Signature Fifth Wheels, so they are absent here. They are not estimated from the segment, not carried over from a sibling floorplan, and not taken from a dealer listing quoting itself. A tire size in particular is a safety-relevant number that differs between two codes a digit apart, and this site does not guess one.
There is no factory GVWR for this trailer
Forest River publishes dry weight, cargo capacity and pin weight for every Rockwood Signature Fifth Wheels floorplan and publishes no GVWR for any of them. The factory's own glossary defines cargo capacity as GVWR minus UVW, which means the rating can be worked out - and a figure you worked out is not a figure the manufacturer published, so this page does not print one. Use the weight label on the trailer itself, which every Forest River unit carries.
Weigh it before you tow it
Forest River calls its unloaded weight an estimated average for a standard build, and options and dealer add-ons change it, so weigh your own trailer loaded the way you travel (how figures are verified).
05 How it compares
8,943 lbs dry against this plan's 9,661 lbs, a difference of 718 lbs.
9,762 lbs dry, 101 lbs more than this plan, and 1,742 lbs of cargo capacity against this one's 2,084 lbs.
2,674 lbs of cargo capacity, the highest of the 19 Rockwood Signature Fifth Wheels floorplans profiled here. If payload rather than length is the binding constraint, that is the plan to compare against.
06 Loading it for a trip
A full 54-gallon fresh tank is about 448 lb of water, 22% of the R374DBH’s 2,084 lb cargo capacity, leaving 1,636 lb. Across 19 Rockwood Signature Fifth Wheels floorplans the water share runs 17% to 31%, and 9 give up more than this one. Nearest on that share: Rockwood Signature Fifth Wheels 332SRL at 22% and Rockwood Signature Fifth Wheels R371RK at 22%.
07 Where this floorplan sits
Closest sibling: the Rockwood Signature Fifth Wheels R371RK, nearest on the published figures. It differs on 3 of the 7 fields both publish (this plan first): dry weight 9,661 lb vs 10,350 lb; cargo capacity 2,084 lb vs 2,051 lb; hitch weight 1,745 lb vs 2,001 lb. They match on length, fresh tank, grey tank and black tank.
