Considering converting cargo trailer to RV - need advice

I have a 2010 Ford Flex FWD non-Eco Boost V6 which will allow me to tow a maximum of 4500#. Since I'm single and don't need/want a huge travel trailer I've been looking at (approx size) 7' x 14' cargo...

Something like this is slightly longer at 18' but having everything already setup and installed and when you do pull into a campground, they won't challenge you if it's a legitimate RV.

If you limit yourself to around 1500# of cargo, you should be within weight ratings...or bump up to a larger tow vehicle.
