01 What makes it unique

Cruiser RV lists the 2025 Shadow Cruiser 300RLS at 7,440 lb dry, a GVWR of 9,890 lb and a net carrying capacity of 2,418 lb. It prints no hitch weight for it. Cruiser RV’s own figures do not add up — a conflict, stated not resolved: 7,440 lb dry plus 2,418 lb carrying capacity is 9,858 lb, against a printed GVWR of 9,890 lb. All three are shown as Cruiser RV prints them and none is corrected; the federal label on the trailer is the one to trust.

It is 34' 11" long and 11' 6" high. Cruiser RV prints no tank capacity for it.

Among the 8 Shadow Cruiser floorplans Cruiser RV’s 2025 Shadow Cruiser brochure lists with a published dry weight, it is number 7 from the lightest, in a range from 5,284 lb (Shadow Cruiser 235RBS) to 8,049 lb (Shadow Cruiser 330BHS). Every figure in that comparison is Cruiser RV’s, for the same model year.

Every number on this page was read on 5 Nov 2026 from Cruiser RV’s 2025 Shadow Cruiser brochure, the maker’s own dated document for model year 2025.

How the 300RLS differs from the other seven Shadow Cruiser floorplans. Most distinctive first. How these ranks are worked out.

  • Dry weight, 7,440 lb: second-heaviest of eight, between the 292BHS (6,932 lb) and the 330BHS (8,049 lb).
  • GVWR, 9,890 lb: second-highest of eight, between the 292BHS (9,470 lb) and the 330BHS (9,995 lb).
  • Cargo capacity, 2,418 lb: second-largest of eight, between the 235RBS (2,282 lb) and the 292BHS (2,776 lb).
  • Length, 34 ft 11 in: second-longest of eight, between the 292BHS (33 ft 11 in) and the 330BHS (37 ft 11 in).
  • Exterior height, 11 ft 6 in: tallest of eight, level with the 292BHS and 330BHS; next are the 235RBS, 240RPD and three others (11 ft 3 in).

Next to the 292BHS, the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the 300RLS is 508 lb heavier by dry weight, has a GVWR 420 lb higher, has 358 lb less cargo capacity and is 1 ft longer; the two publish the same exterior height.

04 Notes on this floorplan

What Cruiser RV does not publish for the Shadow Cruiser 300RLS

Cruiser RV prints no hitch weight, tire size, interior height, grey-tank, black-tank for this model, so none is given. Nothing is filled from a sibling model, a different model year or a dealer listing.

Read the label on the trailer

Federal rules put a load-carrying label inside every RV trailer: its unloaded weight with full propane, its cargo carrying capacity and its GVWR (49 CFR 571.110 and 571.120). Those figures come from the trailer itself and govern the towing decision.
