Clarification on tow capacity
If a vehicle says it's tow capacity is 9,000 lbs what does that 9,000 pounds include? Obviously the TT plus whatever we have in it and the water in it... But what else?

This is the beginning of an expensive mistake. I did it, and so has many others. If you by the lighter trailer now to fit a tow vehicle, in 2 years when you decide you need the bigger trailer you will be right back where you are now looking at both a new TV and TT.
On our first TT we compromised to a no slide bunk house that paired well with my 1500 Silverado. With in a year I talked myself into a 2500 Silverado, then I had the TV I should have had originally so I proceeded to justify a TT upgrade to what we originally wanted.
It'd be more like 5 years down the line or more that I meant. Not a couple years. We can't afford to spend $30,000+ on a TV plus $20,000+ on the TT.
I totally understand what you mean though.
