OK. So you are looking for a TH that will haul your Ranger (about 1500lbs min), your cookers (about 2000lbs), and other gear - so at minimum 3500lbs AFTER the water tanks, sleeping gear, etc.
And you want to tow it with a 2500 SRW or 3500 SRW at max.
If you can't get that, you will skip the Ranger and are looking at 2000lbs AFTER water tanks, sleeping gear,etc.
OK I have a few minute's I will try to explain what my idea's of use are.
This will be a somewhat second home if you will. Most use will be at fishcamp which is the campground at the marina. Will be here 80-90% of the time. Used here year round. On occasion will be moved to different campgrounds throughout Mi ( once a month maybe in the summer) for fishing and a weekend getaway. Will have to take a second truck to drag boat along too.
The side x side is all of 1700 dry weight, 10 gallon gas tank.
L x W x H 116.5 x 60 x 76" (296 x 152 x 193 cm), Now I do have the track system which adds roughly 500 lbs and makes it about 12ft long and and extra foot taller. winter time usage.
Now I would like to use this setup at bbq comps, roughly 4 times a year. all my cookers roughly add up to 2000lbs.
Right now I move all this stuff around on a landscape trailer and current 1/2 ton truck.
