Some good direction given here. I also understand the vehicle dilemma. One thing that can help
on a marginally capable TV is to upgrade the tires. If you have P rated tires consider moving up to a D or E rating. The stiffer sidewall can make it handle much better. Also consider upgrading the shocks. A set of Bilsteins or something comperable can make lots of difference. Good luck and I hope you can find a good match for your situation. It's out there somewhere!
Thanks! I've actually looked into upgrading the tires, but it turns out that my OEM tires are plenty strong (275/55R20 113T, which apparently can carry 2500# each, if I'm reading the ratings correctly).
But I hadn't considered upgrading shocks. Would that increase the payload?
