camperbikermom, as you can see, the "weight cop" vultures are circling hard already at your mere mention of towing a mid size trailer with a full size SUV. Even though your post and questions did not even allude to wanting anyone's opinion.
All I can offer is don't get too caught up in that and maybe you'll get some good info on the type of camper to buy. Keep the weight reasonable and ignore the folks that meter out how many paper plates they put in the pantry based on their sherline scale reading!
So, are you saying that anyone that is trying to match their TV to a trailer should not understand or do the basic math?
What is the problem with making sure you are within the specs for your vehicle?
When determining the type of camper somebody wants, isn’t making sure that the TV is not being overloaded by that choice somewhat important?
I really don’t care what the TV is, as long as people are informed and know the capabilities and the limitations of said TV. Same goes for the camper.
A lot of wasted time looking at campers that are not a good fit with a certain TV can be avoided.
Grit dog can correct me if I'm wrong, but the "basic math" still leaves a pretty big range. Some people insist you need to stay on one end of the spectrum, and others like to live dangerously. In my case, it's an almost 2500 lb range that would leave us within the recommendations.
