The best approach is to choose the horse before the cart. Decide on the truck so you will know the capacities and then choose a trailer that will be safe to pull.
Altho I am certainly a newbie here, I disagree.....
I wanted a toy hauler that could handle two Harleys, in a partitioned off garage style 5th wheel. I also very much wanted to stay SRW as we will be using the TV to do touring on days we can't ride. A good friend deeply into RV's strongly suggested finding the trailer first, I did and as it turns out, loaded I'm at 16,400lbs... Now I do know the newer trucks (which I wasn't interested in for my first unit) are more capable, but I ended up with a dually, and it barely has the capacity. Just saying.... Oh, and if you don't already know, the manufacturers aren't very accurate with advertised weights.
