2027 Heartland Sundance Fifth Wheel32RLBS

The Sundance Fifth Wheel 32RLBS leaves Heartland's factory at 10,840 lbs dry, with a published GVWR of 13,200 lbs and 2,360 lbs of cargo capacity between the two. Cargo capacity is 18% 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 81-gallon fresh tank spends 672 lbs of that 2,360 lbs before anything else is loaded.

Pin weight is 2,065 lbs, which is 19% of the dry weight. That figure lands on the truck's rear axle and comes straight off its payload rating - not its towing rating, which is the number most often quoted and the wrong one for this decision. Pin weight rises as the trailer is loaded, and a fifth wheel loaded toward its cargo capacity will put substantially more than 2,065 lbs over the bed. Read the payload figure on your own door sticker rather than a brochure maximum for the model.

Off hookups: 137 gallons of grey and black capacity against 81 gallons of fresh water, so fresh water runs out first (tank sizes by length).

Against the rest of the Sundance Fifth Wheel roster this is the 5th of 6 floorplans by dry weight, in a line that runs from 8,030 lbs to 13,235 lbs. It sits in the heavier third of the line.

Plan the tow on loaded weight, not the 10,840 lbs dry figure: half the published cargo capacity brings this plan to about 12,020 lbs, and the published GVWR of 13,200 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. 32RLBS is a Sundance Fifth Wheel designation and this site does not decode it into a layout claim.

How the 32RLBS differs from the other five Sundance Fifth Wheel floorplans. Most distinctive first. Sibling pages may cover other model years than this one (2027). How these ranks are worked out.

• Cargo capacity, 2,360 lb: largest of six; next is the 35MRBS (2,165 lb).
• Cargo capacity as a share of GVWR, 17.9%: largest of six; next is the 27MLOK (17.7%).
• Dry weight, 10,840 lb: second-heaviest of six, between the 29RLCS (9,765 lb) and the 35MRBS (13,235 lb).
• GVWR, 13,200 lb: second-highest of six, between the 29RLCS (11,600 lb) and the 35MRBS (15,400 lb).
• Pin weight, 2,065 lb: second-heaviest of six, between the 29RLCS (1,790 lb) and the 35MRBS (2,530 lb).
• Length, 36 ft 7 in: second-longest of six, between the 28DB (34 ft 7 in) and the 35MRBS (42 ft 1 in).
• Pin weight as a share of dry weight, 19%: third-smallest of six, between the 24ML (18.7%) and the 35MRBS (19.1%).
• Exterior height, 12 ft 7 in: tallest of six, level with the 35MRBS; next are the 24ML, 27MLOK and 29RLCS (12 ft 3 in).
• Fresh tank, 81 gal: largest of six, level with the 35MRBS; next are the 24ML, 27MLOK and 29RLCS (52 gal).
• Grey tank, 87 gal: largest of six, level with the 35MRBS; next are the 24ML, 27MLOK and two others (82 gal).
• Black tank, 50 gal: largest of six, level with the 35MRBS; next are the 24ML, 27MLOK and two others (45 gal).
• Sleeping capacity, 4: shared with the 29RLCS; of five, one smaller and two larger, nearest the 27MLOK (2) and the 35MRBS (8).

Next to the 29RLCS, the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the 32RLBS is 1,075 lb heavier by dry weight, has a GVWR 1,600 lb higher, has 525 lb more cargo capacity, has a pin weight 275 lb heavier, is 2 ft 7 in longer, stands 4 in taller, has a fresh tank 29 gal larger, has a grey tank 5 gal larger and has a black tank 5 gal larger; the two publish the same sleeping capacity.

Next to the 35MRBS, the nearest heavier floorplan by dry weight, the 32RLBS is 2,395 lb lighter by dry weight, has a GVWR 2,200 lb lower, has 195 lb more cargo capacity, has a pin weight 465 lb lighter, is 5 ft 6 in shorter and sleeps four fewer; the two publish the same exterior height, fresh tank, grey tank and black tank.

Sundance Fifth Wheel is Heartland's fifth-wheel roster under the Sundance name. Heartland publishes 3 floorplans for 2027 and all 3 are profiled here, from 9,765 lb dry (29RLCS, 34' 0" long) to 13,235 lb dry (35MRBS, 42' 1" long), with published hitch weights of 1,790 to 2,530 lb. Dry weight plus cargo carrying capacity equals the published GVWR exactly on 3 of 3.

A full 81-gallon fresh tank is about 672 lb of water (water counts as cargo: 49 CFR 571.120 S10.4.2), 28% of the 32RLBS’s 2,360 lb cargo capacity, leaving 1,688 lb (422 lb per rated berth). Across 6 Sundance Fifth Wheel floorplans the water share runs 23% to 31%, and 3 give up more than this one. Nearest on that share: Sundance Fifth Wheel 29RLCS at 24% and Sundance Fifth Wheel 24ML at 29%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.120 S10.4.3).
