...camper moved the center of gravity up higher, thus tire loading could be extreme if you swerve or are in a high cross wind (that's believable). Also, footprint with high COG is smaller and last, high frontal wind load on a large area (of the camper) makes small gusts amplify the load.
That makes perfect sense to me.
The GVW rating on my pu is 9500 lbs. It weighs just a few pounds over 6000 lbs.
The recommended camper weight is 2935 lbs. That's almost 600 lbs under the payload.
I fail to see the issue here. :)
