The trailer you are looking at is no lightweight. Your size, dry vs max loaded weights are very similar to our Alpenlite 34RLR.
You might seriously look at getting a dually. A quick look around will show that those who have gone from a SRW to a DRW never go back to a SRW. They usually ask themselves why they did not get the DRW first & be done with it. It is not so much the added load capacity, it is the added stability & security in a challenging situation where it really proves its worth.
Sure, you can add all kinds of stuff to beef up the SRW, but once you have paid for all of that you might as well have bought the dually in the first place.
Besides....a dually LOOKS like a truck.
