. . . oh, and thanks for the link to the Tow Ratings, cool. They only have up to a 2012, but . . . a 2012 Nissan Armada is rated at 8200 lbs, I have a new 2014 Armada with Tow Leveling, I will double check, but I think it's either 8300 or maybe even 8400 lbs. I know if the 4X4 model it's 9000 lbs, but mine is 2wd.
IMHO you are setting your sights a little too high. Realize that the weights posted on the manufacture's web site often do not include many of the options you will want/have. For instance I bought a TH with a 5500lbs posted weight, and thought to myself....add 1000 lbs for water, 1000 lbs for toys and another 500 lbs for all the other stuff and I am good with my 9000 lbs tow rating. Well it turns out that I was more like 11,000 lbs and my Titan could not handle it.
Look for ones that claim to be super/ultra lite and I would stay around the 23ft range.
