My tow hitch itself says it can carry 3000pd, I have seen a few tow behinds that may work having a bathroom would be a plus if I can find one in my range.
You can't go by hitch rating alone, you will run out of carrying capacity before you run out of hitch capacity. Check the tag in the drivers door for carrying capacity.
With 3000# tow rating that will eliminate any hard side I am aware of (other than tear-drop), ours is on the light side at 2500# unloaded for a hard side, water and gear will push 1000# easy, putting you over weight.
There are a great many pop-ups that can come in 2500# loaded though, so you can probably pull most of them.
Maybe an A-Liner or Trail-Manor would be nice fit, they are hard-pop-ups, best of both worlds, not sure your price range though, they are spendy for their size, but light and easy to tow.
