Something up to 3500 lbs. with slide out. Thank you.
Not gonna happen. Even Camplite's smallest slideout-equipped unit is 2700 pounds bone dry. So they say. Likely to be well over 3500 pounds loaded, even lightly.
Side note:
If your 3500 pound limit is tied to a vehicle's towing capacity, every single thing you put in the tug will affect available payload/GCWR. Hitch weight capacity especially will be negatively affected, and you'll need every bit of 350 pounds there to safely tow 3500 pounds of trailer.
I tow a small trailer with a low-limit vehicle and know whereof I speak...
