Number one....get right hitch for 1/2 ton SUV towing. Hensley or Propride.
Do not tow without one of them. Seriously.
Additional upgrades are LT tires, aftermarket shocks, and rear spring help (bags or spacers)
SHORTER will not tow any easier. Dont be fooled.
You DO need to watch tongue weights of any trailer you choose. What I tow can approach 1000lbs if you're careful loading and I also did some light weighting (small lithium battery small LP 1 gallon tanks). Over 900lbs on the tongue is too much for every modern SUV out there.
My rig is a Sequoia and Grand Design 2800bh. My family and I tow all over the nation for 3 weeks every year.
You may like some of Gulfstreams Vista Cruisers. The 23 foot has bunks, its light, and its aerodynamic. We used to own one but it was then called a Gulfstream Visa 23bhd.
