Need light trailer recommendations under 6200 lbs GVWR.
My husband & I have a 4WD 2005 Toyota Sequoia that is rated to pull 6200 lbs. Our current camper weighs 4500 lbs GVWR and we pull it with ease. We are now looking to trade for a slightly bigger camper that has more room ( with at least 1 slide out) that we can camp in comfortably for weeks at a time. So far we like the layout of the 24rls Starcraft launch (GVWR 6250lbs) and the Jayco white Hawk 24rdb ( GVWR 6750 lbs).
Our dilemma is:
1.When picking a TT that is at the top (or over) on weight of the tow vehicle's capability is there anything we can do to the Toyota increase its towing ability? Would an equalizing hitch help in either situation?
2.Should we go ahead and replace our tow vehicle with something with a higher tow capability? Our Toyota is 11 years old but only has 124,000 miles on it and is in great shape. Would like to keep it if we can find something suitable.
