01 What makes it unique

Highland Ridge lists the 2022 Silverstar XLT 354MBH at 11,210 lb dry, a GVWR of 13,500 lb, a net carrying capacity of 2,290 lb and a pin weight of 2,155 lb. Its dry weight plus its carrying capacity comes to exactly its GVWR.

It is 39' 3" long and 12' 8" high. Highland Ridge prints its tanks as 81 gal fresh, 97 gal grey, 40 gal black.

Among the 4 Silverstar XLT floorplans Highland Ridge’s 2022 Silverstar XLT brochure lists with a published dry weight, it is number 4 from the lightest, in a range from 9,700 lb (Silverstar XLT 264RLS) to 11,210 lb (Silverstar XLT 354MBH). Every figure in that comparison is Highland Ridge’s, for the same model year.

Every number on this page was read on 6 Nov 2026 from Highland Ridge’s 2022 Silverstar XLT brochure, the maker’s own dated document for model year 2022.

How the 354MBH differs from the other three Silverstar XLT floorplans. Most distinctive first. How these ranks are worked out.

  • Dry weight, 11,210 lb: heaviest of four; next is the 364BHS (11,020 lb).
  • Cargo capacity, 2,290 lb: second-largest of four, between the 294RLS (2,130 lb) and the 364BHS (2,480 lb).
  • Cargo capacity as a share of GVWR, 17%: second-smallest of four, between the 264RLS (15.7%) and the 294RLS (17.8%).
  • Pin weight, 2,155 lb: second-heaviest of four, between the 294RLS (2,000 lb) and the 364BHS (2,235 lb).
  • Pin weight as a share of dry weight, 19.2%: second-smallest of four, between the 264RLS (18.4%) and the 294RLS and 364BHS (20.3%).
  • Length, 39 ft 3 in: second-longest of four, between the 294RLS (34 ft 5 in) and the 364BHS (39 ft 7 in).
  • Exterior height, 12 ft 8 in: second-tallest of four, between the 264RLS (12 ft 4 in) and the 364BHS (13 ft 1 in).
  • GVWR, 13,500 lb: highest of four, level with the 364BHS; next is the 294RLS (12,000 lb).

Next to the 364BHS, the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the 354MBH is 190 lb heavier by dry weight, has 190 lb less cargo capacity, has a pin weight 80 lb lighter, is 4 in shorter, stands 5 in lower, has a grey tank 18 gal smaller and has a black tank 40 gal smaller; the two publish the same GVWR and fresh tank.

Towing it

Tow rating needed13,500 lb
Published pin weight2,155 lb
Loaded pin weight, rule of thumb2,155–3,375 lb
In-bed fifth-wheel hitch rating needed13,500 lb towed / 3,375 lb pin
Payload check. Budget loaded, not dry: subtract the loaded range, every passenger and the bed and cab load from the payload on your tow vehicle’s door-pillar placard (49 CFR 571.110 S4.3).

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 (13,500 lb) and the upper loaded pin estimate (3,375 lb, a rule of thumb). Your vehicle’s placard and the trailer’s own weight label govern.

Loaded range: 15–25% of GVWR on the pin, a rule of thumb, not a measurement of this unit. No truck ratings or hitch classes (why; NHTSA, DOT HS 809 433). The range starts at the published figure, because loaded is never lighter than that.

04 Notes on this floorplan

What Highland Ridge does not publish for the Silverstar XLT 354MBH

Highland Ridge prints no 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

11,020 lb dry and 13,500 lb GVWR, against this model’s 11,210 lb and 13,500 lb.

06 Loading it for a trip

A full 81-gallon fresh tank is about 672 lb of water (water counts as cargo: 49 CFR 571.120 S10.4.2), 29% of the Silverstar XLT 354MBH’s 2,290 lb cargo capacity, leaving 1,618 lb. Across 4 Silverstar XLT floorplans the water share runs 27% to 37%, and 2 give up more than this one. Nearest on that share: Silverstar XLT 364BHS at 27% and Silverstar XLT 294RLS at 32%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.120 S10.4.3).
