Without getting into weight police forensics, although the Nissan will pull it, I would not want to on a consistent basis especially if hills are involved. I have a Roo 23 WS and prior had a Keystone 234exp which was basically the same size but lighter, and towed them both with a 2000 Silverado 5.3, 2013 F150 5.0, and 2013 or 2015 GM 2500 6.0.
I could only imagine doing so with a 6 banger.
Roos are front heavy, especially the 21SS, 24WS, 23IKSS. Our 23WS used to be the 23SS and is now the 24WS, basically its the 21SS's bigger brother by about 3'. The published hitch weights are inaccurate. Don't be surprised if its 600lb hitch weight is actually close to 1000 if not more loaded, especially if you fill the water tank which is located in the front 1/3 of the rig.
Our 23WS had a published hitch of 600 and in actuality its 1200 lbs.
