Honestly, I am not sure whether your truck can handle this particular trailer or not -- but that is not the point of this post. The point is this: you have no idea how much FUN this is going to be! With a "footloose" business that can be conducted anywhere, and a home-schooled child, the whole world is open to you. Once you get over your understandable newbie fears, you will be so happy that you chose to get into RVing.
After ten years of extensive travel (check out our blog link, below), our only regret is that we did not get into trailering till we were in our 50s, missing all those years with the kids.
Be sure to save a copy of your post and look at it in a couple of years -- it will give you a big laugh.
Yes, there are always maintenance issues. No big deal. It is the price of freedom. No more crowded airports, no more disease-ridden cruise ships, no more motel bedspreads (if you know what I mean!), fewer salty/fatty/tasteless meals in noisy restaurants. Choose your itinerary as you go. Sit by a campfire and read. Hike to a waterfall and feel the spray.
Do it. No doubt. (But make sure your truck can comfortably handle the weight, especially in the mountains, both uphill and down.)
