01 What makes it unique

The Vengeance Rogue 23SUT leaves Forest River's factory at 5,498 lbs dry, with a published GVWR of 9,995 lbs and 4,497 lbs of cargo capacity between the two. Cargo capacity is 45% of the loaded rating, and Forest River's own definition is worth reading before you plan against it: 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 96-gallon fresh tank spends 797 lbs of that 4,497 lbs before anything else is loaded.

Dry tongue weight is 1,036 lbs, or 19% of the dry weight. Ten to fifteen percent is the conventional band for a bumper-pull trailer, and this plan sits above it as published. Tongue weight is not fixed: it moves with how the trailer is loaded, and weight added ahead of the axles raises it. A weight-distribution hitch is the normal fitment at this tongue load, and the tow vehicle's tongue-weight limit is a separate number from its trailer-weight limit.

Tank capacities are 96 gallons fresh, 38 grey and 38 black, 76 gallons of waste capacity against 96 gallons of supply. The ratio is what governs how long the trailer can sit off hookups: fresh capacity exceeds total waste capacity, so the grey and black tanks fill before the fresh tank empties and dumping is what ends the stay. Forest River publishes these three figures per floorplan, and they are the factory's numbers rather than a segment average.

Against the rest of the Vengeance Rogue roster this is the 1st of 14 floorplans by dry weight, in a line that runs from 5,498 lbs to 14,014 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. Comparing floorplans inside one line is more reliable than comparing across brands, because every figure here comes from the same factory channel on the same day.

A useful way to read the pair of weights is to stop planning against the dry figure. Nobody tows a trailer at 5,498 lbs: that is the weight before water, batteries, propane, bedding, food, tools and anything the dealer bolted on. Load half the published cargo capacity, which is modest for a family trip, and this plan is already near 7,746 lbs on the road. Compare that number against the tow vehicle, not the dry weight, and leave margin on top of it - the published GVWR of 9,995 lbs is a limit rather than a target.

Every number above was captured twice from Forest River and checked against itself before it was published. The line roster block and the individual floorplan page are two separate factory renderings of the same trailer, and this plan's 4 shared figures agree exactly on both. 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 it is because Forest River does not publish it in this channel, not because it was hard to find - and the row says so rather than being quietly dropped.

Forest River publishes no floorplan description for this plan in the channel this page is built from - 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. 23SUT is a Vengeance Rogue designation and this site does not decode it into a layout claim.

These graphics are generated from the same verified record that builds the table above, and are published under this site’s own licence — nothing here is traced from, or derived from, a manufacturer drawing or photo. Where a figure is not published for this plan, the graphic that would need it is omitted rather than estimated. The full record is in the published dataset.

What it takes to tow this

Built from this floorplan’s verified weights. We publish the trailer side only.

Minimum tow rating your vehicle needs9,995 lb
Published dry tongue weight1,036 lb
Loaded tongue weight, typical range1,036–1,499 lb
Minimum receiver hitch capacity9,995 lb towed / 1,499 lb tongue
The tongue weight above is dry. It is the figure the manufacturer publishes for an empty trailer. Loaded — with water, propane, batteries and your gear — it runs higher, which is why the range row uses loaded weight. Sizing your truck off the dry number under-budgets your payload.
The arithmetic that actually binds. Open your driver’s door and read the payload figure on the yellow-and-white sticker — that number is specific to your truck as built. Subtract from it: loaded tongue weight (use the range above), every passenger, everything in the bed and cab, and the weight-distributing hitch itself where one is used. What is left is your margin. Payload, not tow rating, is what most half-ton owners run out of first.

We do not publish tow ratings for specific trucks. A single model can vary by thousands of pounds depending on engine, axle ratio, cab, drivetrain and package — the only authoritative figure is the one on your own door jamb. Loaded tongue percentages are industry convention for travel trailers (10–15% of loaded weight), not a measurement of this unit. Hitch classes are not used here as a rating: SAE J684 covers trailers to 10,000 lb GVWR and does not define Class V, and capacity boundaries differ between manufacturers — read the rating stamped on your hitch. On this plan the convention band’s low end fell below the published dry figure, so the range starts at the published dry weight instead — loaded is never lighter than dry.

03 The Vengeance Rogue floorplan family

Vengeance Rogue is published as three rosters that span two different towing propositions, and the split is the first thing to understand about the line. The SUT and Armored Travel Trailer plans are bumper-pull toy haulers running 5,498 to 10,219 lb dry with tongue weights of 1,036 to 1,620 lb. The Armored fifth wheels start where those stop: 12,874 to 14,014 lb dry on pin weights of 2,990 to 3,385 lb, which is three-quarter-ton and one-ton territory with a properly rated in-bed hitch. Nothing on this hub mixes the two -- every floorplan page names its own hitch class and no pin figure appears in a tongue row. Forest River publishes a GVWR for all fourteen, and dry plus cargo equals it exactly on every one.

Forest River publishes Vengeance Rogue across three roster groupings -- Vengeance Rogue SUT, Vengeance Rogue Armored fifth wheels and Vengeance Rogue Armored travel trailers -- and all three are catalogued here under one hub, which is how this site files a factory sub-roster of a line. Fourteen floorplans are published for 2026; twelve carry the complete field set and are profiled. One dealer-stock-only plan and one plan for which Forest River publishes no exterior height are catalogued rather than profiled. Forest River publishes dry weight, GVWR, cargo capacity, hitch or pin weight, exterior length and width and all three tank capacities for the roster. It publishes no sleeping capacity, axle count, tire size or MSRP in this channel, so those rows are absent rather than estimated.

04 What owners & reviewers report

What Forest River does not publish for this line

Sleeping capacity, axle count, tire size and MSRP are absent from Forest River's specification channel for Vengeance Rogue, so they are absent here. They are not estimated from the segment, not carried over from a sibling floorplan, and not taken from a dealer listing quoting itself. A tire size in particular is a safety-relevant number that differs between two codes a digit apart, and this site does not guess one.

Weigh it before you tow it

Every figure on this page is a factory publication for a standard build. Forest River's own footnote on unloaded weight calls it an estimated average based on a standard build with optional equipment, and options, dealer-installed accessories and the previous owner's additions all move it. The only weight that governs your towing decision is the one under your own trailer on a scale, loaded the way you actually travel.

05 How it compares

Heavier
Vengeance Rogue 25SUT

7,078 lbs dry, 1,580 lbs more than this plan, and 4,387 lbs of cargo capacity against this one's 4,497 lbs. Stepping up a floorplan usually buys length before it buys payload.

Most cargo in the line
Vengeance Rogue 26L140

4,761 lbs of cargo capacity, the highest of the 12 Vengeance Rogue floorplans profiled here. If payload rather than length is the binding constraint, that is the plan to compare against.

06 Loading it for a trip

This floorplan carries its water comfortably. A full 96-gallon fresh tank is roughly 18% of the 4,497-pound cargo capacity, leaving the 23SUT with a usable gear budget even when you tow full.

Cargo capacity as published (CCC)4,497 lbEverything you add: gear, water, propane, batteries, food, people’s belongings.
Fresh tank filled (96 gal × 8.34 lb)−801 lbWater is the heaviest thing most owners add, and it is added first.
Cargo budget left with a full fresh tank3,696 lb18% of this plan’s capacity is spent before a single bag is loaded.

The published dry tongue weight of 1,036 pounds is 19% of the 5,498-pound dry weight — at or above the top of the usual 10–15% band before you load anything. A nose-heavy dry figure eats truck payload directly, so budget the hitch load against your door-jamb sticker rather than against the tow rating.

Nothing above changes the ceiling. Loaded to its 9,995-pound GVWR the 23SUT is towing 4,497 pounds more than its 5,498-pound dry figure, and that is the number your vehicle has to be rated for — not the brochure weight.

Tank balance is worth a look before a long boondocking trip: 96 gallons of fresh against 38 grey and 38 black. Waste capacity is smaller than supply, so on this floorplan the grey tank fills before the fresh tank empties — the drain schedule, not the fill, is what ends the stay.

07 Where this floorplan sits

Of the 12 Vengeance Rogue floorplans profiled here, the 23SUT is the lightest by GVWR at 9,995 pounds — the entry point to the line and the one most likely to suit a vehicle already at its limit.

Either side of it in the same line: Vengeance Rogue 25SUT is 1,470 pounds heavier at 11,465 lb GVWR.

Against the 23SUT: the Campsite Reserve 29TJ is 10 ft longer; the Cascade 29TEC is 9 ft longer; the Eagle 262RBOK is 2 ft longer. Those are differences in the published numbers only — what they cost, how they are built and how they live are separate questions each of those pages answers on its own terms.

Those are the nearest travel trailers from other lines by weight — one per line, picked by proximity on that figure and nothing else. They are listed so the same tow vehicle can be checked against real alternatives, not because they are equivalent inside; layout, build and price diverge sharply across that group.

For scale, the Vengeance Rogue floorplans profiled here run 5,498 to 14,014 pounds dry and 27 to 45 feet of exterior length across 12 plans. Where a floorplan falls in that spread usually says more about which vehicle can tow it, and which site it fits, than the layout name does.

Every profiled floorplan in this line, with the full weight table, is on the Vengeance Rogue line hub.

08 Common questions about the 23SUT

How much does the 23SUT weigh?

It leaves the factory at 5,498 pounds dry, and its manufacturer-set loaded ceiling (GVWR) is 9,995 pounds. Real towing weight lands between the two and depends entirely on what you load. Use the GVWR when matching a tow vehicle; the dry figure is only useful for comparing floorplans against each other.

How much can the 23SUT carry?

Cargo carrying capacity is 4,497 pounds. That is the whole budget: water, propane, batteries, gear and everything you bring. Filling the 96-gallon fresh tank uses about 801 pounds of that.

What is the tongue weight of the 23SUT?

The published dry tongue weight is 1,036 pounds. It is measured empty; loaded, it runs higher, and it comes out of your tow vehicle’s payload rather than its tow rating.

What size tow vehicle does the 23SUT need?

Your vehicle needs a tow rating of at least 9,995 pounds — this floorplan’s GVWR — and enough payload left over for the hitch load, passengers and anything in the bed. This site does not publish tow ratings for specific vehicles, because one truck model varies by thousands of pounds across engine, axle ratio, cab and package. The figure that governs is the payload sticker on your own door jamb.

What are the tank capacities on the 23SUT?

Fresh 96 gallons, grey 38 gallons, black 38 gallons. Tank sizes set how long the floorplan can sit away from hookups, and the smallest of the three is what ends the stay.

How long is the 23SUT?

Exterior length is 27' 2". Measure against your site length and your storage before committing — the exterior figure is the one that has to fit, and it includes the tongue or pin box.

Every figure in these answers is read from this page’s verified specification table. Where the manufacturer publishes nothing, the question is not answered rather than estimated.

09 What this page publishes, and what it does not

This catalog tracks 18 specification fields per floorplan. Named sources publish 11 of them for the 23SUT. The rest are not shown, because the alternative is reading a figure across from a sibling floorplan or from what the segment usually does — and a number nobody published is worth less than an admitted gap.

Not published for this floorplan: interior height, sleeps, slide count, axle count, tire specification, refrigerator, air conditioning. If you find one of these in a manufacturer document for this plan, it belongs on this page.

The completeness figure at the foot of this page (85%) measures the same thing on the full field set: it is a measurement of how much this floorplan’s manufacturer publishes, not of how much research went into the page.

How every figure here was sourced and checked is set out on the methodology page.
