I'm trying to stay under 6000# (most of these are 5000# or under dry)
My question is, which of these are of higher quality build? I'm starting to lean away from the passports as they seem to have really low cargo weight ratings, which seems to me means that the suspension/framework isn't the best.
All of your post seems to ask about capability, although your stated question is about quality. These are two different things.
Regarding quality, the ones listed are all the same - RV industry grade. As for the correlation between low CCC and quality , you can't say because the CCC is "low"its because of poor quality components.They can take the best quality components of lower capacity and have both.
Now is the RV show season, I suggest you go to some of these shows and judge fit and finish for yourself. Fit and finish are good indicators of initial quality, and how the trailer holds up over time is the rest of the equation.
