We bought a new KZ-Sportsmen Classic 19bhs with an unloaded vehicle weight of 2,840. The dealer said we should have no problem towing it with our 2011 Sienna minivan with a tow package and a WD hitch. When we got to the dealer for set up, they said our WD hitch hadn't yet come in, so they set us up with a class 3 hitch/wiring, etc. We had a 2 hour drive home.
We white knuckled it the entire way. The poor van stressed and the camper swayed and we felt like idiots. We got home and literally went and bought a new truck the next weekend. The difference in feel when towing is incredible.
So, I agree to stick with a very lightweight tt or tent trailer and don't believe everything the dealer tells you!
