Am I reading this right? (Receiver capacity)
I just saw this sticker on my new (to me) tow vehicle. Am I correct in assuming that with a weight distribution hitch, I can have a tongue weight of up to 1500lbs? Weights: TV: G...

Definitely replace the factory receiver, even if it isn't one of the issue hitches. Being a round tube model it will probably "wind up" (twist) when you latch the wd bars up on your new 32 with 1,300lbs+/- tw.
Concerning the loaded tw of your 32, obviously it will depend on just what you load in the pass through and under the queen bed.
We have in our pass through and under the bed:
Ez-Up hd model from Sams Club
Camp Chef Explorer 2 burner stove
Coleman Road Trip grill blue model
2-9x12 awning mats
Tub with fresh water hoses, 25'-30amp extension cord, and a 50'-14g ext cord, plus a few other items- couple hose splitters, power stirp, etc
X-Chocks
Ice Maker
4 Bag Chairs
Jayco Bumper Grill- Haven't decided where I want to store it, chances are will never use it.
May be missing something at the moment.
When I weighed we did not have any of the boys stuff in the bunk room (clothes, tv, few toys, etc), shelving I put in all the wardrobes, Jayco rear cargo hitch, bike rack, or bikes, all tanks were empty.
Trailer weight was 8,660lbs, tw was 1,400lbs. I know those weights have changed some, just didn't get a chance to weigh it since. We had just loaded the trailer for a short w/e trip after picking it up the night before, probably 99% of everything else (beside what I mentioned above) was loaded.
Good luck tmrw!!!
