1. ALL Pathfinders of the 2005-2012 vintage have a 6000lbs tow capacity. V8's have a 7000lbs rating.
2. Yes, you need a WD hitch with sway control. No, you do not need airbags if the WD hitch is adjusted properly.
3. Yes, you'll tow that camper just fine; it'll just be "adequate" but for the short hop that you intend to use it for, it will do the job.
4. You will tow best in 3rd gear, especially if there are hills. Wind will be your worst enemy.
5. You'll need to replace the 4-pin connector with a 7-pin connector. There is a plug-n-play version from the dealer.
6. This NA V6 will do the job adequately.
Yes, I tow a 24' 4950lbs camper a 2005 V6 Pathfinder with 140K miles and counting.... PM me with any specific questions.
