Forest River Travel Trailers
Rockwood
Travel Trailers
A long-running Forest River brand with a lineup that runs from compact and budget-friendly to roomy and well-equipped.
Rockwood is one of the most recognizable travel trailer names on the road, and it covers a lot of ground. Whether you want something light enough for a half-ton truck or a bigger trailer for longer stays, there’s likely a Rockwood line that fits.
Because Rockwood spans such a wide weight range, it’s exactly where matching the trailer to your tow vehicle matters most. That’s where I can help.
I sell Rockwood travel trailers in Dewey, near Prescott, and work with buyers from across Arizona. Text me and I’ll send a video walkaround of what’s on the lot.
Rockwood Lines

Availability varies by model year and what’s in stock. Ask me what’s on the lot.
Towing
Which Ford Can Tow a Rockwood?
It depends on the floor plan. Here’s one example, the Rockwood Ultra Lite 2606WS, using its published specs. Always compare the trailer’s GVWR, not its dry weight, to the tow rating, and then check payload.
| Rockwood Ultra Lite 2606WS | Published spec |
|---|---|
| Dry weight | 6,550 lbs |
| GVWR (max loaded) | 8,542 lbs |
| Length | 29' 9" |
| Trailer | Maverick | Explorer | Ranger | Expedition | F-150 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rockwood Ultra Lite 2606WS GVWR 8,542 lbs | Over | Over | Over | Tight | Good fit |
Good fit: trailer GVWR at or under 80% of the Ford’s max tow rating (my rule of thumb). Tight: under the rating but without much margin. Over: above the rating. Max ratings below apply to properly equipped vehicles only; your truck may be rated lower. Always check payload too.
| Ford | Max towing | When |
|---|---|---|
| Maverick | 4,000 lbs | with the 4K Tow Package |
| Explorer | 5,000 lbs | standard Class III tow package |
| Ranger | 7,500 lbs | properly equipped |
| Expedition | 9,600 lbs | 4x4 with Heavy-Duty Trailer Tow Package |
| F-150 | 13,500 lbs | properly equipped, 3.5L EcoBoost |
Ford ratings from ford.com for current model years. Trailer specs are published manufacturer figures for one example floor plan; options change weight, so confirm on the specific trailer’s sticker.
FAQ
Questions I Get a Lot
Which Rockwood is lightest?
The smaller Geo Pro and Mini Lite floor plans are generally the lightest. Exact weight depends on the floor plan and options, so check the sticker on the specific trailer.
Can an F-150 tow a Rockwood?
Many Rockwood travel trailers are a good match for a properly equipped F-150. The key is comparing the trailer’s GVWR to the truck’s tow rating and checking the truck’s payload. I’ll run the numbers with you.
