01 What makes it unique
Shasta lists the 2025 32DS at 7,278 lb dry, a GVWR of 9,580 lb and a tongue weight of 780 lb. Shasta prints no cargo carrying capacity for it, so none is given here; the federal label inside the trailer carries one.
It is 36'7" long and 11'8" high. Shasta prints its tanks as 39 gal fresh, 30 gal grey, 30 gal black.
Among the 5 Travel Trailers floorplans Shasta’s 2025 Shasta travel trailers brochure lists with a published dry weight, it is number 5 from the lightest, in a range from 4,417 lb (20RB) to 7,278 lb (32DS). Every figure in that comparison is Shasta’s, for the same model year.
Every number on this page was read on 6 Nov 2026 from Shasta’s 2025 Shasta travel trailers brochure, the maker’s own dated document for model year 2025.
How the 32DS differs from the other four Travel Trailers. Most distinctive first. How these ranks are worked out.

Towing it
Check your vehicle. Enter the ratings from your owner’s manual and the door-pillar placard.
Compares your figures with this page’s published GVWR (9,580 lb) and the upper loaded tongue estimate (1,437 lb, a rule of thumb). Your vehicle’s placard and the trailer’s own weight label govern.
Loaded range: 10–15% of GVWR on the tongue, a rule of thumb, not a measurement of this unit. No truck ratings or hitch classes (why; NHTSA, DOT HS 809 433).

04 Notes on this floorplan
What Shasta does not publish for the 32DS
Shasta prints no cargo carrying capacity, tire size, interior height, sleeping capacity 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.
05 How it compares
6,459 lb dry and 7,750 lb GVWR, against this model’s 7,278 lb and 9,580 lb.
