Looking at the TT 8315BSS it states a dry weight of just over 7200 and a carry capacity of 1500+ Some of that 1500 will be used in battery and propane so I imagine the dry weight delivered is about 7550 lbs That still leaves near 1400 lbs carrying capacity. That may be adequate for a retired couple I know it would be more than enough for my DW and I. We don't do much boondocking so I travel with about a quarter tank of water and the holding tanks empty there is water at most check ins for state parks and electric only camping. I have plenty of payload left in my 2500 Ram so some of the extras can go there when needed. I scale out loaded and headed to Fl. for the Winter a little over 15,000 lbs all told. As far as longevity I think a Rockwood will handle the road as well as any other. Check out posts from Chip & Char he has towed a similar Rockwood similar to the one you mention, 10's of thousands of miles with only minor problems.
