2027 Grand Design Transcend315RKT

Grand Design publishes an unloaded vehicle weight (UVW) of 8,400 lb and a GVWR of 11,000 lb for the 2027 Transcend 315RKT, with a hitch weight of 1,070 lb. It does not publish a cargo carrying capacity on the floorplan page, so none is shown here, and none is worked out by subtracting one published figure from the other. The trailer’s own federal weight label, inside the door, carries its cargo capacity as built.

It is 36' 10" long, 11' high and 8' wide, with 56 gal fresh, 117 gal grey and 39 gal black tanks as Grand Design lists them. Fresh water weighs about 8.3 lb per US gallon, so a full fresh tank adds roughly 465 lb before anything else is loaded.

Among the 8 Transcend floorplans profiled from Grand Design’s 2027 pages, it is number 5 of 8 by unloaded weight, in a range from 6,327 lb to 9,400 lb. Every figure in that comparison comes from the same Grand Design page type for the same model year.

Every number on this page was read on 4 Nov 2026 from Grand Design’s own floorplan page for the Transcend 315RKT, whose structured data names the model year 2027.

How the 315RKT differs from the other seven Transcend floorplans. Most distinctive first. How these ranks are worked out.

• Tongue weight as a share of dry weight, 12.7%: second-largest of eight, between the 325BHT (12.5%) and the 345DQT (13.9%).
• Sleeping capacity, 4: second-smallest of eight, between the 285RKT (2) and the 245RLT and 345DQT (6).
• Tongue weight, 1,070 lb: third-heaviest of eight, between the 335BHT (1,056 lb) and the 325BHT (1,086 lb).
• Dry weight, 8,400 lb: fourth-heaviest of eight, between the 295QBT (7,383 lb) and the 325BHT (8,672 lb).
• Length, 36 ft 10 in: fourth-longest of eight, between the 295QBT (35 ft 11 in) and the 325BHT and 335BHT (37 ft 3 in).
• Grey tank, 117 gal: largest of eight, level with the 335BHT and 345DQT; next are the 245RLT, 265BHT and three others (78 gal).
• GVWR, 11,000 lb: highest of eight, level with the 325BHT, 335BHT and 345DQT; next is the 295QBT (8,995 lb).
• Slide-out count, 2: shared with the 325BHT; of eight, four fewer and two more, nearest the 245RLT, 265BHT and two others (1) and the 335BHT and 345DQT (3).

Next to the 295QBT, the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the 315RKT is 1,017 lb heavier by dry weight, has a GVWR 2,005 lb higher, has a tongue weight 267 lb heavier, is 11 in longer, has a grey tank 39 gal larger, sleeps six fewer and has one more slide-out; the two publish the same exterior height, fresh tank and black tank.
