01 What makes it unique

The Rockwood Ultra Lite 2711RK leaves Forest River's factory at 7,703 lbs dry with 2,102 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 2,102 lbs before anything else goes in.

Sold as the Flagstaff Super Lite 27RKS as well

Forest River builds this floorplan under two nameplates and gives it a different code on each: Rockwood Ultra Lite 2711RK and Flagstaff Super Lite 27RKS are one trailer. The two badges share no floorplan codes at all, so a code from one will not be found on the other. Across the whole class the two rosters pair one-to-one on published dry weight, and on this plan the two factory records agree on 15 of the 15 published fields compared. The figures on this page are read from the Rockwood Ultra Lite record; where the Flagstaff Super Lite listing differs it is said so rather than averaged. The full code map is on the Rockwood & Flagstaff hub.

Tongue weight is 1,010 lbs, 13% 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: 135 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 Ultra Lite roster this is the 13th of 17 floorplans by dry weight, in a line that runs from 6,048 lbs to 8,559 lbs. It sits in the heavier third of the line.

Plan the tow on loaded weight, not the 7,703 lbs dry figure: half the published cargo capacity brings this plan to about 8,754 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: “The 2711RK is a rear kitchen floorplan that features plenty of counter space, A pull-out table with chairs, and a massive campsite window. The living area includes a large L-shaped sectional that stays intact when the slides are retracted! Up front, enjoy a king bed slide and a massive front bathroom creating a perfect blend of comfort functionality and style.” 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 2711RK differs from the other sixteen Rockwood Ultra Lite floorplans. Most distinctive first. Sibling pages may cover other model years than this one (2027). How these ranks are worked out.

  • Dry weight, 7,703 lb: fifth-heaviest of seventeen, between the 2902SW (7,610 lb) and the 2912BS (7,854 lb).
  • Tongue weight, 1,010 lb: fifth-heaviest of seventeen, between the 2912BS (952 lb) and the 2720IK (1,035 lb).
  • Exterior height, 11 ft 7 in: tallest of seventeen, level with the 2916RL and 302RDT; next are the 2618RD, 2619FK and three others (11 ft 3 in).
  • Cargo capacity, 2,102 lb: seventh-largest of seventeen, between the 2613BS (2,101 lb) and the 2902SW (2,110 lb).
  • Tongue weight as a share of dry weight, 13.1%: shared with the 2608BS; of seventeen, twelve smaller and three larger, nearest the 2906BS (12.9%) and the 2911BS and 2911SB (13.6%).
  • Length, 32 ft 11 in: eighth-longest of seventeen, between the 2706WS (32 ft 10 in) and the 2720IK (33 ft 1 in).

Next to the 2902SW (2021 page), the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the 2711RK is 93 lb heavier by dry weight, has 8 lb less cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 90 lb heavier, is 2 ft 4 in shorter and stands 5 in taller; the two publish the same fresh tank, grey tank and black tank.

Next to the 2912BS (2022 page), the nearest heavier floorplan by dry weight, the 2711RK is 151 lb lighter by dry weight, has 204 lb more cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 58 lb heavier, is 2 ft 3 in shorter and stands 5 in taller; the two publish the same fresh tank, grey tank and black tank.

03 The Rockwood Ultra Lite floorplan family

Dry weight across the eight profiled plans runs 6,048 to 8,348 lb and tongue weight runs 674 to 1,010 lb, so check the heavier end of this grouping against your hitch rating once the trailer is loaded. Cargo capacity runs 1,767 to 2,487 lb. The tank set is where the wide-body plans separate themselves: fresh water is 54 gallons on every plan and black is 45, but grey runs from 45 to 90 gallons, which is the difference between a long weekend and a week between dumps for the same fresh-water supply.

Ultra Lite is the larger of the two long-running Rockwood travel-trailer classes and the factory files it under two groupings, not one: Ultra Lite Travel Trailers and Ultra Lite Wide Body Travel Trailers. Eleven floorplans are published for 2027. Two of them, 2623MBR and 2921RL, publish no exterior height in this channel, so they are catalogued here and not profiled -- the missing field is stated rather than filled in from a sibling plan. Forest River publishes no GVWR for any Ultra Lite plan, so loaded rating reads as not published throughout. Seven of the eight plans profiled carry a factory floorplan description.

04 Notes on this floorplan

What Forest River does not publish for this line

Sleeping capacity, axle count, tire size and MSRP are not in Forest River’s specification channel for Rockwood Ultra Lite, so this page does not publish them and does not estimate them (how figures are verified).

There is no factory GVWR for this trailer

Forest River publishes dry weight, cargo capacity and tongue weight for every Rockwood Ultra Lite 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).

11 NHTSA safety record

NHTSA holds 35 recall campaigns and 173 owner complaints (model years 2005 on) against the Rockwood & Flagstaff line (a recall and a complaint are not the same thing).

What to look at on a used one. Across the 173 complaints filed on this line the most-reported components are tires (22%), structure (17%) and wheels (17%).

Recall coverage here is not complete, and complaints are owners’ unverified reports (how this record is built). Check a specific VIN at NHTSA before you buy. Full tables are on the Rockwood & Flagstaff line page.
