Good morning! Thanks for all the replies and the encouragement. I'm a freelance software developer IT consultant and have clients that I do remote work-from-home. It's not full-time but pays the bills. I'm also happy to do part-time jobs just to fill in my spare time and get out and meet people.
So a couple of questions:
I have a 2007 Toyota 4Runner 4WD V8 SUV which came with the factory tow-package and wiring for a trailer and brakes, and a factory transmission radiator. The tow rating is 7,300 lbs and tongue weight is 1,095 lbs. My only real concern is the shorter wheel-base than I'd have with a pick-up.
1) For travelling mostly around the southern part of the US, what length trailer would you max out with the 4Runner? I've seen people on the 4Runner forum with 25-foot, 30-foot trailers behind their 4Runners.
2) In the months I've been researching, I keep coming back to the Keystone Passport Elite 23RB Ultra-Light. It's a 23-footer and has a dry weight of 4,680 lbs. Is this a decent trailer for fulltiming, given my 4Runner?
3) I have a motorcycle that I'd like to take with me, it weighs 380 pounds. Is there a way to get a hitch on the rear of the trailer where I can put a motorcycle hitch carrier (the bike would be sideways)?
