I searched and didn't find my exact config, so trying here. This is my first post, hope I'm not breaking any rules
Here is all the info I know
I am thinking I can tow about 5000lb dry weight + 1500lb fluids and cargo so 6500
12678/12700 is probably too close for comfort so I would look to reduce, but looking for my starting point to work down from
We are looking for a TT that has a slide out and bunks. I would like it to be <25'
We are in SoCal and will probably weekend it up several times a year but not something we would be in for extended periods of time.
Couple of questions
1. Have I done the math right?
2. Any suggestions for TTs that fit the criteria? I'm assuming its a bit of tall order but open to thoughts
3. Could I add anything (tow package, etc) safely and affordably that would increase my capacity?
Thanks in advance all!
