We really, really like the idea of a rear-living floorplan.
Tow vehicle is a diesel jeep that has a max towing capacity of 7,300#, so figuring a good dry weight to look at is 5,500ish.
Most RLS trailers are in the 30' class so my concern would be not so much the weight of the trailer but it's length and whether your Jeep's wheelbase is sufficient to deal with it. Our previous mid size 24' Spree measured 26' 9" coupler to bumper and although it towed just fine behind our Avalanche which has a 130" wheelbase I certainly wouldn't have towed it with anything shorter. Some may disagree but IMO even a good weight distribution system such as an Equal-i-zer or Blue Ox Sway Pro still wouldn't be enough to overcome the effects of towing such a long trailer with any short wheelbase vehicle. Perhaps if you posted your Jeep's wheelbase others will offer comment on this.
