The 21BHS @ 5000 lbs Gross Weight is too heavy for my pickup with a 20% safety factor.
Not in a hurry, so will continue to camp with current rig while deciding the next move.
Guess I'm spoiled towing a 1500LB 11RD CampLite camper with the Frontier. If I'm on the interstate & blocked when trying to get in the right lane, have plenty of power on hand to pass if needed & maintain a good speed going up mountains. The wind has not been a issue yet & towed in windy situations, too. MPG so far with this rig is around 16MPG @ 55MPH. Some of the camp sites in the mountains & on the beach work well with the 11RD.
Maybe we don't need the extra room after all! :)
Thanks Again,
