A lot of times 'Lite' is not really lite. The OP's 5er comes in dry (UVW) around 8600lbs+. The 2022 comes in around 9100lbs dry. Thats not light in my books. HT is not really always half ton as there's no half ton truck that could tow the OPs 5er. There's one Jayco eagle HT thats maybe 1/2 ton towable but thats it's. It's just more marketing hype that needs to stop.
The rest are 3/4 ton gas or 1 ton diesel.
Inside construction isn't much different than other lines as far as cabinetry goes. Maybe a lighter countertop but thats not a failure point.
Thanks for the clarification.
