Expedition Towing Camper
I posted this question in the Tow Vehicle forum as well, but after looking through this forum thought this might be the more appropriate place. I am considering a new travel trailer. It is 31 feet ...

I would not go quite that far. Stay closer to 6k dry and <700 dry TW. That will likely end up right at ratings. That Expy has a ton of power so it will pull very well. It's more of a stability/comfort level.
Thanks, the dry weight on the one we had wanted is 6,544lbs. Just a darn heavy tongue at 835lbs.
Also remember that just because it has a high dry tongue weight doesn’t mean it will be even heavier after it’s loaded. You need to mod the trailer properly to get the 12% TW. There is no reason an 8k lb trailer should 1200lbs of TW. It’s all in the loading!
