2027 Heartland Sundance31BROK

The Sundance 31BROK leaves Heartland's factory at 9,620 lbs dry, with a published GVWR of 11,995 lbs and 2,375 lbs of cargo capacity between the two. Cargo capacity is 20% 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 2,375 lbs before anything else is loaded.

Tongue weight is 1,110 lbs, 12% 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 3rd of 3 floorplans by dry weight, in a line that runs from 7,980 lbs to 9,620 lbs. It is the heaviest plan in the line, so the tow vehicle should be settled before the floorplan is.

Plan the tow on loaded weight, not the 9,620 lbs dry figure: half the published cargo capacity brings this plan to about 10,808 lbs, and the published GVWR of 11,995 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. 31BROK is a Sundance designation and this site does not decode it into a layout claim.

How the 31BROK differs from the other two Sundance floorplans. Most distinctive first. How these ranks are worked out.

• Dry weight, 9,620 lb: heaviest of three; next is the 29RLBS (9,515 lb).
• GVWR, 11,995 lb: highest of three; next is the 29RLBS (11,700 lb).
• Cargo capacity, 2,375 lb: largest of three; next is the 29RLBS (2,185 lb).
• Cargo capacity as a share of GVWR, 19.8%: largest of three; next is the 29RLBS (18.7%).
• Tongue weight, 1,110 lb: lightest of three; next is the 27OKFK (1,160 lb).
• Tongue weight as a share of dry weight, 11.5%: smallest of three; next is the 29RLBS (12.5%).
• Length, 38 ft 8 in: longest of three; next is the 29RLBS (37 ft 11 in).
• Sleeping capacity, 8: largest of three; next are the 27OKFK and 29RLBS (4).
• Exterior height, 11 ft 1 in: second-lowest of three, between the 27OKFK (11 ft) and the 29RLBS (11 ft 2 in).

Next to the 29RLBS, the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the 31BROK is 105 lb heavier by dry weight, has a GVWR 295 lb higher, has 190 lb more cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 75 lb lighter, is 9 in longer, stands 1 in lower, has a fresh tank 29 gal smaller and sleeps four more; the two publish the same grey tank and black tank.

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 571.120 S10.4.2), 18% of the 31BROK’s 2,375 lb cargo capacity, leaving 1,943 lb (243 lb per rated berth). Across 3 Sundance floorplans the water share runs 18% to 31%, and this plan’s is the lowest. Nearest on that share: Sundance 27OKFK at 24%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.120 S10.4.3).
