Forest River Salem 27DBK for a first TT?

Looking to buy one, possibly tomorrow. I'm a total newb. Any thoughts or concerns? looking at 19k before tax and title. I have plenty of truck(2500HD), and know I need a no sway hitch. After that any thoughts on negotiations? Things to look at? Any help is welcomed. Thanks.

    Yes, you do probably have enough truck for this TT. But you posted seeking validation? If so, you are not convinced in your own head. Spend the next week comparing this TT to similar TTs. Then decide. And why are you so sure sway won't be an issue? 32 feet of TT is a heck of a length for a newbie, and will your anticipated campgrounds allow 32 feet of box, probably 36 overall?
