Pretty new but need advice
Currently getting ready to move and I have a strange question. Looking at purchasing a small 1-2 person travel trailer as they're pretty cheap where I am now. Current one I'm looking at is an 25' 20...

If you have a place close to weigh the trailer, it is easy to find max load capacity. There will be a sticker on trailer driver side front corner, listing the trailers max load (GVWR). If you weigh it empty, and for example it weighs 5K, and the GVWR is 7K, you could load 2K of additional wt. Now depending how you load, the tongue wt should be 10-15 percent of the 7K, let's say 13 percent, so 910 lbs.

I made a mistake and had made an assumption, probably due to my glance at the model number while looking at the manufacturer. For that, I apologize. The model is a 2014 Palomino Puma Unleashed 25-RBSS and is 29' and not 25 like I assumed. Going by the advice from another post, I may have an issue as it has a maximum weight of 10k lbs, but normal dry weight is just under 7k lbs. So that would only leave 1300lbs between the trailer and the suburbans tow weight. So it appears I may be cutting it close especially if loaded with propane and water.
