OP, your numbers look good. An actual weight of your truck with everybody on board would certainly make everything crystal clear though.
Even though it looks like you'll have some breathing room payload-wise you could free up some of that by using an Andersen rail-mount hitch like I have. Rails/brackets and hitch right around the 100lb mark.
It's a very nice trailer. Make sure you try one out first though. The bedroom is a bit tight around the bed, and there's a small step up to get to the overhead cabinets above the bed.
This last trip I went for a nice tumble trying to turn myself around while next to the bed, and of course, I didn't land on the nice soft bed. Wife thought I was down for the count :)
Something worth checking out in real time as opposed to looking at floorplans online. Get yourself into the trailer and see if it'll work.
Cheers,
Mike
