2026 East to West Silver Lake3250QB

The Silver Lake 3250QB leaves East to West's factory at 7,518 lbs dry with 3,462 lbs of cargo capacity. East to West 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 40-gallon fresh tank spends 332 lbs of the 3,462 lbs before anything else goes in.

Dry tongue weight is 780 lbs, or 10% of the dry weight. Ten to fifteen percent is the conventional band for a bumper-pull trailer, and this plan sits inside it as published. Tongue weight is not fixed: it moves with how the trailer is loaded, and weight added ahead of the axles raises it. A weight-distribution hitch is the normal fitment at this tongue load, and the tow vehicle's tongue-weight limit is a separate number from its trailer-weight limit.

Tank capacities are 40 gallons fresh, 60 grey and 30 black, 90 gallons of waste capacity against 40 gallons of supply. The ratio is what governs how long the trailer can sit off hookups: waste capacity exceeds fresh, so the fresh tank is the binding constraint and refilling extends the stay. East to West publishes these three figures per floorplan, and they are the factory's numbers rather than a segment average.

Against the rest of the Silver Lake roster this is the 10th of 10 floorplans by dry weight, in a line that runs from 3,548 lbs to 7,518 lbs. It is the heaviest plan in the line, so the tow vehicle should be settled before the floorplan is. Comparing floorplans inside one line is more reliable than comparing across brands, because every figure here comes from the same factory channel on the same day.

A useful way to read these figures is to stop planning against the dry weight. Nobody tows a trailer at 7,518 lbs: that is the weight before water, batteries, propane, bedding, food, tools and anything the dealer bolted on. Load half the published cargo capacity and this plan is already near 9,249 lbs on the road. Because East to West publishes no loaded rating for this line, the ceiling has to come from the trailer's own weight label rather than from this page, and the comparison you make against the tow vehicle should use the loaded figure.

Every number above was captured twice from East to West and checked against itself before it was published. The line roster block and the individual floorplan page are two separate factory renderings of the same trailer, and this plan's 4 shared figures agree exactly on both. There is no published GVWR on this line, so the usual arithmetic check - dry plus cargo equals the rating - has nothing to test against here. Where a figure is missing from this page it is because East to West does not publish it in this channel, not because it was hard to find - and the row says so rather than being quietly dropped.

East to West publishes no floorplan description for this plan in the channel this page is built from - only the numeric specification block. Rather than describe a layout from the floorplan code, which would be a guess dressed as a fact, this page carries what the factory publishes and says where it stops. 3250QB is a Silver Lake designation and this site does not decode it into a layout claim.

Silver Lake is the lightest complete roster on this site from any East to West line, and it is organised around a single split. Three LE plans are single-axle trailers from 3,548 lb dry with 475 to 550 lb on the tongue; the other seven are tandem-axle and run to 7,518 lb dry with 565 to 780 lb on the tongue. Every one of the ten is a bumper pull. The practical read is that the whole line stays inside what a half-ton truck or a large SUV can carry on the ball, and the single-axle plans stay inside what a good many mid-size vehicles can -- but the tow rating that matters is the one on your own door sticker, against the loaded weight rather than the dry figure. Cargo capacity runs 1,062 to 3,462 lb.

This floorplan carries its water comfortably. A full 40-gallon fresh tank is roughly 10% of the 3,462-pound cargo capacity, leaving the 3250QB with a usable gear budget even when you tow full.

The published dry tongue weight of 780 pounds is 10% of the 7,518-pound dry weight, which sits inside the 10–15% band usually quoted for stable towing. It is still a dry figure: loading the front pass-through and the fresh tank both push it up.

Tank balance is generous here: 40 gallons of fresh against 60 grey and 30 black, so waste capacity keeps pace with supply and the fresh tank is the constraint that ends a dry stay.

Of the 8 Silver Lake floorplans profiled here, the 3250QB carries the highest dry weight at 7,518 pounds. It is the top of the line by weight, which makes tow-vehicle capability the first thing to settle rather than the last.

Either side of it in the same line: Silver Lake 2700BH is 1,115 pounds lighter at 6,403 lb dry.

Against the 3250QB: the Imagine 2670MK is 31 lb lighter and 5 ft shorter; the Zinger 292RE is 32 lb heavier and 4 ft shorter; the Voyage 2730RL is 39 lb lighter and 7 ft shorter. Those are differences in the published numbers only — what they cost, how they are built and how they live are separate questions each of those pages answers on its own terms.

Those are the nearest travel trailers from other lines by weight — one per line, picked by proximity on that figure and nothing else. They are listed so the same tow vehicle can be checked against real alternatives, not because they are equivalent inside; layout, build and price diverge sharply across that group.

For scale, the Silver Lake floorplans profiled here run 3,548 to 7,518 pounds dry and 21 to 38 feet of exterior length across 8 plans. Where a floorplan falls in that spread usually says more about which vehicle can tow it, and which site it fits, than the layout name does.

Every profiled floorplan in this line, with the full weight table, is on the Silver Lake line hub.

This catalog tracks 18 specification fields per floorplan. Named sources publish 10 of them for the 3250QB. The rest are not shown, because the alternative is reading a figure across from a sibling floorplan or from what the segment usually does — and a number nobody published is worth less than an admitted gap.

Not published for this floorplan: GVWR, interior height, sleeps, slide count, axle count, tire specification, refrigerator, air conditioning. If you find one of these in a manufacturer document for this plan, it belongs on this page.

The completeness figure at the foot of this page (83%) measures the same thing on the full field set: it is a measurement of how much this floorplan’s manufacturer publishes, not of how much research went into the page.

How every figure here was sourced and checked is set out on the methodology page.
