That "dry" weight does not include any options lke the awning or A/C either. The high-wall Niagara will hold more (by volume) than a low-wall Niagara, so you are correct to be more concerned about exceeding the weight limit on the high-wall.
It dosen't hurt to record what you typically pack with a bathroom scale the next time you load up for a trip.
Liquids, canned goods, and coolers full of ice and food and are where we should focus on weight reduction.
There had been several posts in the past about bent axles on the HW - no doubt due to their ability to hold more stuff than they should carry.
There were some changes to the cargo capacity on the Highlanders over the years so keep that in mind too as you shop for a HW.
