I loved my Springdale for 7 years until we upgraded to a newer Keystone model. I felt the Keystone products had a better looking fit and finish than the Jayco's. The quality overall is probably similar, but I just liked the look better. The tongue weight can get to 1000lbs easy if it's 830 dry. Your truck can handle that as long as there isn't a bunch of stuff/people in the truck. Layout can affect the tongue weight, as can storage of course. Just pack it up properly and you should be ok. You may want to upgrade trucks eventually, but the trailer itself is a decent size to keep for many years.
I went to a 30' trailer with dual slides because of 3 dogs and wanting more floor space. Plus this new trailer has a lot of fun features we'll enjoy for a long time. I had a 26' previously with 1 slide and it was a decent size, but we appreciate having less of a hallway and more "living space" with the dual slides and a couple extra feet. Plus with the current layout, we can access the bedroom, bathroom, fridge, and pantry without deploying any slides, which is a huge advantage when traveling.
