Trailer weight question

Not sure if this is the right spot for this but here goes. We have a Starcraft 17ck 1999 hybrid tt that we pull with an SUV rated for 3500 lbs. I believe the weight is less than 2500 lbs. we are looking at a aero cub Thor m-216 which is a 21' hybrid. Nada says the weight is just over 2800 lbs but I found 2 ads elsewhere for this and it says the weight is over 4k. It's a 2001. Anyone know how accurate nada is according to weight?
Thnx
Just want to make sure our SUV can handle it.

    I would be inclined to believe that a 21' camper is over 2800 lbs. If it has two axles,I would bet its more than you are rated for.

    Like Donn said the real answer lies in the sticker.

    Lacking actual ready to travel weight obtained at a certified scales. Your best option is to look at the trailers GVWR as posted on the DOT sticker on the left front side.
