G-Gal,

Why not expolore the Lance 1274. It's is large enough to tow with your current truck (this RV was made for smaller trucks)


It's got a nice dry bath and you can have your stove, TV and ducted heat w/ A/C. It weighs in between:
Overall Length 16'10

Dry Weight 2200 Lbs.

Hitch Dry Weight 205 Lbs.

CCC 1300 Lbs.

GVWR 3500 Lbs.

Floor Length 12'9"

Sleeps up to 4

her Escape has a 350lb TW limit. This thing loaded up is going to be a lot more than that. It is TW heavy. Close to 500lbs I bet
