One thing is certain --- if you are looking for a cold weather unit, it won't be a "lite" trailer. Things like enclosed underbellies, insulated valves and other insulative materials cost money and add weight. There is no magic.
surprisingly, the 22G isn't that heavy.

It sounds as if the OP is exercising due diligence, and I congratulate him for that. For others, keep in mind that "four seasons" means something very different in the north than it does in the south or (most of) the southwest.
This is very true. I live at 7,000 feet and we have hit temperatures as low as -33 degrees. This past Christmas vacation, we traveled 2,500 miles with our Jayco and we spent three nights in temperatures below 10* degrees. Whenever you wake up with frost on the interior walls, then you know it might be time to upgrade to a serious 4 season camper. We survived just fine, but the furnace ran 80% of the time and the electric heater ran on high 100% of the time.
