As the others have said, most factory receivers are rated 300/3000. Reason for that is that virtually every state requires brakes on trailers > 3k lbs' GVW. By staying at 300/3k, they don't have to deal with brake wiring and can put a lighter hitch in place. Swivel wheel totes that attach to the main frame rails are legal in a lot of places, but NOT legal in a lot of others. Some states don't consider them as trailers, but as an "extension"; some states to consider them trailers and must have a registration but also allow double-towing; some states consider them as trailers and do NOT allow doubles. A friggin' quagmire... As jkwilson said, there are some THs that have =very= nicely appointed garages for living and, while I'm not a biker, I know it'd sure be nice to have it out of the weather (and sight!). There was one FW made a few years ago that had a "mini-garage" built into a slide on the left rear. Cool idea, but not enough demand to keep it going. I can't even think of the brand and I can't remember any posts on here about anyone actually buying one.
