It is 44' 6" long and 13' 4" high. Forest River prints its tanks as 158 gal fresh, 118 gal grey, 86 gal black.
Among the 5 XLR Thunderbolt floorplans Forest River’s XLR Thunderbolt brochure (filed in Forest River’s /brochures/2020/ folder; the brochure prints no year) lists with a published dry weight, it is number 4 from the lightest, in a range from 13,644 lb (XLR Thunderbolt 369AMP) to 16,364 lb (XLR Thunderbolt 422AMP). Every figure in that comparison is Forest River’s, for the same model year.
Every number on this page was read on 6 Nov 2026 from Forest River’s XLR Thunderbolt brochure (filed in Forest River’s /brochures/2020/ folder; the brochure prints no year); model year 2020 comes from where the maker files it on its own site, not from the document’s text.

04 Notes on this floorplan
What Forest River does not publish for the XLR Thunderbolt 413AMP
Forest River prints no GVWR, tire size, interior height, sleeping capacity for this model, so none is given. Nothing is filled from a sibling model, a different model year or a dealer listing.
Read the label on the trailer
Federal rules put a load-carrying label inside every RV trailer: its unloaded weight with full propane, its cargo carrying capacity and its GVWR (49 CFR 571.110 and 571.120). Those figures come from the trailer itself and govern the towing decision.
