2832lbs. sounds like a realistic UVW yellow sticker weight.
but this is the biggest issue with small trailers that have the magic 3500lbs. GVWR.
LOUSY Cargo Capacity amounts!
speculating that you'll only have 300lbs. for food, supplies and cargo, is not realistic. unless your family is extreme minimalists.
which is rare for a family with kids.
for these types of trailers, families soon find out that they don't have enough cargo capacity for their stuff.
i know quite a few hybrid owners, of this size of trailer on other Hybrid forums, that ended up regretting that they bought a 16-17' trailer.
even the Jayco 19UXD has a lousy CCC amount.:(
