I pull a 30 ft sunset creek with a v10 excursion . Its a 3/4 ton truck basically . My truck is rated for 10k towing , camper weighs 8400lbs loaded .I know its back there. What always concerns me when towing is braking , I can stop with the 3/4 tons brakes , I wouldnt trust a 1/2 ton vehicle with towing weight with family on board .
Your tow vehicle should not be using it's brakes to be stopping the TT.
OP - there are many lighter trailers out there - I would do my best to stay away from the limits. We towed our current TT with an Expedition at every limit and it wasn't pretty. I would also try to keep it 30' or under.
