6000lb dry is going to be way too much for your TV. you need to look in the minis 5000lb dry range. And there are plenty of them.
I agree with needing to be able to use the TT with the slide in. Never know when you may want something , or need the bathroom.
What ever you get. Take your time and pick your TT wisely.
I am really surprised you mentioned a 5000lb dry range max. I thought dry range at 6k would leave me a lot of weight for this and that. Don't plan on traveling with water being 8.3lbs per gallon but I can see it adding up fast.
In 2006 we towed 3K popup trailer with a Ford Escape over the continental divide twice without problems....it was SLOW reaching the top though. We learned on that trip how to skimp on space and weight for 30 days, 6500 miles.
