2027 Heartland Sundance27OKFK

The Sundance 27OKFK leaves Heartland's factory at 7,980 lbs dry, with a published GVWR of 9,800 lbs and 1,820 lbs of cargo capacity between the two. Cargo capacity is 19% of the loaded rating, and cargo capacity is what remains for fresh water, gear, food, batteries and every dealer-installed accessory. Fresh water alone is 8.3 lb per gallon, so filling this trailer's 52-gallon fresh tank spends 432 lbs of that 1,820 lbs before anything else is loaded.

Tongue weight is 1,160 lbs, 15% of the dry weight as published; it rises as the trailer is loaded and counts against the tow vehicle’s tongue-weight and payload limits (tongue weight by size).

Off hookups: 111 gallons of grey and black capacity against 52 gallons of fresh water, so fresh water runs out first (tank sizes by length).

Against the rest of the Sundance roster this is the 1st of 3 floorplans by dry weight, in a line that runs from 7,980 lbs to 9,620 lbs. It is the lightest plan in the line, which makes it the one to look at first if the tow vehicle is the constraint.

Plan the tow on loaded weight, not the 7,980 lbs dry figure: half the published cargo capacity brings this plan to about 8,890 lbs, and the published GVWR of 9,800 lbs is the limit (how to read trailer weights).

Every number above was read from Heartland's own factory page for this floorplan. It was read once, from that page only, so there is no second factory listing to check it against. Dry weight plus cargo capacity also equals the published GVWR exactly, which is the arithmetic check this site runs on every profiled floorplan. Where a figure is missing from this page the row says why: either Heartland does not print it on this floorplan's page, or this capture does not carry it.

This capture carries no floorplan description for this plan - 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. 27OKFK is a Sundance designation and this site does not decode it into a layout claim.

How the 27OKFK differs from the other two Sundance floorplans. Most distinctive first. How these ranks are worked out.

• Dry weight, 7,980 lb: lightest of three; next is the 29RLBS (9,515 lb).
• GVWR, 9,800 lb: lowest of three; next is the 29RLBS (11,700 lb).
• Cargo capacity, 1,820 lb: smallest of three; next is the 29RLBS (2,185 lb).
• Cargo capacity as a share of GVWR, 18.6%: smallest of three; next is the 29RLBS (18.7%).
• Tongue weight as a share of dry weight, 14.5%: largest of three; next is the 29RLBS (12.5%).
• Length, 31 ft 7 in: shortest of three; next is the 29RLBS (37 ft 11 in).
• Exterior height, 11 ft: lowest of three; next is the 31BROK (11 ft 1 in).
• Tongue weight, 1,160 lb: second-lightest of three, between the 31BROK (1,110 lb) and the 29RLBS (1,185 lb).

Next to the 29RLBS, the nearest heavier floorplan by dry weight, the 27OKFK is 1,535 lb lighter by dry weight, has a GVWR 1,900 lb lower, has 365 lb less cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 25 lb lighter, is 6 ft 4 in shorter, stands 2 in lower and has a fresh tank 29 gal smaller; the two publish the same grey tank, black tank and sleeping capacity.

Sundance is Heartland's travel-trailer roster under the Sundance name. Heartland publishes 3 floorplans with a 2027 Quick Specs page and all 3 are profiled here, from 7,980 lb dry (27OKFK, 31' 7" long) to 9,620 lb dry (31BROK, 38' 8" long), with published hitch weights of 1,110 to 1,185 lb. Dry weight plus cargo carrying capacity equals the published GVWR exactly on 3 of 3.

A full 52-gallon fresh tank is about 432 lb of water (water counts as cargo: 49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.2), 24% of the 27OKFK’s 1,820 lb cargo capacity, leaving 1,388 lb (347 lb per rated berth). Across 3 Sundance floorplans the water share runs 18% to 31%, and 1 gives up more than this one. Nearest on that share: Sundance 31BROK at 18% and Sundance 29RLBS at 31%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.3).
