2027 Keystone Sprinter3520RDS

Keystone publishes three weights for the Sprinter 3520RDS: a shipping weight of 11,441 lb, a carrying capacity of 2,459 lb and a hitch weight of 2,240 lb. Those are Keystone’s own terms, and this page keeps them. Keystone does not call the first figure dry or unloaded weight, does not say the hitch figure is measured dry, and publishes no GVWR for any Sprinter floorplan, so none of the three is renamed here and no loaded rating is worked out from them. The trailer’s own federal weight label, inside the door, is the document that carries its UVW, cargo capacity and GVWR.

Tank capacities are 75 gal fresh, 78 gal gray and 44 gal waste, as Keystone lists them. Fresh water weighs about 8.3 lb per US gallon, so a full fresh tank is roughly 622 lb on the road before anything else is loaded. The tire size Keystone lists is ST235/80R16E; a fifth wheel puts its pin load into the truck bed, so it counts against the truck’s payload rather than its tow rating.

Against the 9 Sprinter floorplans profiled here, this one is the 1st by Keystone’s shipping weight, in a range from 11,441 lb (3520RDS) to 14,320 lb (3900DBL). Every figure in that comparison comes from the same Keystone page type for the same model year, so the comparison inside the series is like for like.

Every number on this page was read on 4 Nov 2026 from Keystone’s own floorplan page for the Sprinter 3520RDS. That page carries no model year, so the year comes from the roster page that links it, which lists the Sprinter floorplans under the heading “2027 Floorplans”. Keystone notes that its website reflects the most recent production run and that features and specifications change during the year.

How the 3520RDS differs from the other eight Sprinter floorplans. Most distinctive first. How these ranks are worked out.

• Shipping weight (Keystone’s term), 11,441 lb: lightest of nine; next is the 3500RDB (12,020 lb).
• Hitch weight as Keystone lists it, 2,240 lb: second-lightest of nine, between the 3500RDB (2,185 lb) and the 3640RLP (2,250 lb).
• Hitch weight as a share of shipping weight, 19.6%: second-largest of nine, between the 3910RLQ (19.5%) and the 3800FLB (21.5%).
• Length, 39 ft 5 in: second-shortest of nine, between the 3500RDB (39 ft 4 in) and the 3640RLP (40 ft 5 in).
• Carrying capacity (Keystone’s term), 2,459 lb: third-smallest of nine, between the 3900DBL (2,180 lb) and the 3920DSL (2,560 lb).
• Fresh tank, 75 gal: smallest of nine, level with the 3800FLB; next is the 3500RDB (76 gal).
• Grey tank, 78 gal: smallest of nine, level with the 3800FLB; next are the 3500RDB, 3640RLP and two others (84 gal).
• Sleeping capacity, 4: smallest of nine, level with the 3640RLP and 3840LRK; next are the 3500RDB and 3800FLB (6).

Next to the 3500RDB, the nearest heavier floorplan by shipping weight, the 3520RDS is 579 lb lighter by shipping weight, has 579 lb more carrying capacity, has a hitch weight 55 lb heavier, is 1 in longer, has a fresh tank 1 gal smaller, has a grey tank 6 gal smaller and sleeps two fewer; the two publish the same exterior height.

Keystone lists 12 Sprinter floorplans for 2027. 9 have a complete Keystone figure set and no existing page here, and are profiled, from 11,441 lb to 14,320 lb shipping weight; the others are catalogued on this page with the reason against each. Keystone publishes shipping weight, carrying capacity and hitch weight for these trailers, and no GVWR.
