It seems that so many manufacturers try to get by with the bare minimums when it comes to components.
My Open Range 216 has two #4400 axles and Load range D 15" tires. That results in a trailer that has a gross cargo capacity of nearly #3000. That's on a TT with a 22'7" box length. More than a foot shorter than the Evergreen the OP is looking at.
I suppose I could load it up to the point that I couldn't even tow it with my TV. Point is I won't do that but really like having the extra capacity as a cushion for safety. I really wouldn't want to be running around having to worry if my next bag of ice or stop at the grocery store would put us over the GVWR.
