It sounds like you have pretty much made up your mind. Folks are telling you, your vehicle will not be able to tow this trailer with your current vehicle and they are correct. Yet, you are saying you can make it work anyway. Your idea of weight distribution (heavy people up front will offset the weight on the end) is ... well ... it doesn't work that way.
You can do what you want, but if you go with this combination, I hope you have enough financial coverage, because within 2 weeks you start towing, you'll probably be looking to replace the transmission.
Nothing wrong with the camper you are considering. Everything wrong with your tow vehicle. But, I'm sure you can work it out! Right? Sorry guy to bust your bubble. You won't be able to tow much more than a pop-up without serious damage to that vehicle in a very short while.
