I'll agree with the suggestion by a few others to take a look at the molded fiberglass entries such as Scamp and Casita. We're on our second - the first was a 16' side bath Scamp for seven years and, since 2012, a 19' front bath Deluxe Scamp. Both were/are pulled by 4WD double cab Tacoma's.
With reasonable care, these hold their value like nothing else I've seen in the RV world and they're extremely durable. How many thirty year old 'stickies' do you see around? As of this AM, there was a great looking 2015 19' Deluxe for sale in Stone Gap, VA. The seller has priced the tow and camper but says he/she will separate. I'd expect the camper alone to be around 18-20K +/- as it appears to have every option.
This configuration has proven to be just about ideal for the two of us. We're retired, camp sixty plus nights each year; mostly on public lands (NC Outer Banks, Smokies, Canada to Fl and a two week plus trip out west each year, We're about sixty miles south of the VA line and twenty miles east of I95 if you're anywhere nearby and want to take a look at ours (its an 01 model but they don't change much).
Good luck with your search.
