2026 Forest River Viking292TB

The Viking 292TB has 2,742 lbs of cargo capacity between 6,903 lbs dry and its 9,645 lbs GVWR, 28% of that rating; filling its 40-gallon fresh tank at 8.3 lb a gallon uses 332 lbs of it (how to read trailer weights).

Tongue weight is 845 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: 133 gallons of grey and black capacity against 40 gallons of fresh water, so fresh water runs out first (tank sizes by length).

Against the rest of the Viking roster this is the 14th of 16 floorplans by dry weight, in a line that runs from 2,499 lbs to 8,052 lbs. It sits in the heavier third of the line.

Plan the tow on loaded weight, not the 6,903 lbs dry figure: half the published cargo capacity brings this plan to about 8,274 lbs, and the published GVWR of 9,645 lbs is the limit (how to read trailer weights).

Forest River’s line listing and this floorplan’s own factory page agree on all 4 shared figures. Dry weight plus cargo capacity equals the published GVWR exactly. A missing row means Forest River does not publish that figure (how figures are verified).

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. 292TB is a Viking designation and this site does not decode it into a layout claim.

How the 292TB differs from the other fifteen Viking floorplans. Most distinctive first. Sibling pages may cover other model years than this one (2026). How these ranks are worked out.

• Grey tank, 101 gal: largest of sixteen; next is the 30RKDS (74 gal).
• Cargo capacity, 2,742 lb: second-largest of sixteen, between the 26BH (2,681 lb) and the 242MK (2,976 lb).
• Length, 36 ft 8 in: second-longest of sixteen, between the 30RKDS (36 ft 5 in) and the 282DORM (36 ft 11 in).
• Dry weight, 6,903 lb: third-heaviest of sixteen, between the 262DBS (6,093 lb) and the 282DORM (7,208 lb).
• GVWR, 9,645 lb: third-highest of sixteen, between the 25TH (7,900 lb) and the 282DORM (9,730 lb).
• Tongue weight, 845 lb: fourth-heaviest of sixteen, between the 262DBS (725 lb) and the 282DORM (930 lb).
• Tongue weight as a share of dry weight, 12.2%: sixth-smallest of sixteen, between the 262DBS (11.9%) and the 18DBS and 25QBH (12.5%).
• Cargo capacity as a share of GVWR, 28.4%: seventh-largest of sixteen, between the 22BHSR (27.7%) and the 25TH (29.7%).
• Exterior height, 11 ft: shared with the 22BHSR, 242MK and four others; of sixteen, eight lower and one taller, nearest the 25TH (10 ft 7 in) and the 30RKDS (11 ft 3 in).
• Fresh tank, 40 gal: largest of sixteen, level with the 18BH, 22BHSR and five others; next is the 18DBS (39 gal).

Next to the 262DBS, the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the 292TB is 810 lb heavier by dry weight, has a GVWR 1,920 lb higher, has 1,110 lb more cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 120 lb heavier, is 4 ft 9 in longer and has a grey tank 37 gal larger; the two publish the same exterior height, fresh tank and black tank.

Next to the 282DORM, the nearest heavier floorplan by dry weight, the 292TB is 305 lb lighter by dry weight, has a GVWR 85 lb lower, has 220 lb more cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 85 lb lighter, is 3 in shorter and has a grey tank 64 gal larger; the two publish the same exterior height, fresh tank and black tank.

Viking is organised by weight rather than by layout, and the factory names the groupings accordingly: 3K, 4K, 5K and 6K Series. That makes it the most readable roster in this group for anyone shopping to a tow limit, because the series name is the weight class. Eighteen floorplans run 2,499 to 7,208 lb dry on lengths of 16 feet to 36 feet 8 inches, with tongue weights of 325 to 930 lb.

A full 40-gallon fresh tank is about 332 lb of water (water counts as cargo: 49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.2), 12% of the 292TB’s 2,742 lb cargo capacity, leaving 2,410 lb. Across 16 Viking floorplans the water share runs 11% to 55%, and 14 give up more than this one. Nearest on that share: Viking 242MK at 11% and Viking 26BH at 12%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.3).
