I have a 95 Lance Lite 185s and am wanting to upgrade. I've had this camper for 20+ years and its been a great camper and still is. I'm wanting a 5 cu. ft fridge instead of my 3.0. My rig weighs 2410 loaded except personal gear. I'm looking for something around that weight. I have a 2001 GMC 2500HD SB CC DM. What camper would fit my needs weight wise, don't want to go heavier if possible.
I am sitting in RV park next to 10-footer Northern Lite.
The neighbor loves it for his off-road adventures and says it is only 2000 lb (with jacks and AC).
Look to me like nice camper as well, although don't know all the specs.
By the looks it is 7 feet wide.

We had your same camper as our first hard sided TC and loved it! We currently have a Lance 650. Similar size with a larger dinette than the 185 had, and larger tanks as well. The day I picked it up I drove straight to a certified scale and the weight as delivered (with full propane) was exactly 2000 pounds. The only options we didn't get were the rear awning, backup camera, swing out entry handle and removable carpet kit. Loaded to the gills (for us) including full fresh water we come in right as 2300 pounds. It still has the 3 cubic foot fridge, but otherwise I think it's worth looking at.
First I don't believe 20 yo camper in good size weighting 2400lb loaded.
Even new, aluminium "Light" TC don't touch that number, unless you are talking the 6-foot wide Lance makes for rentals (and no jacks).
For me upgrade means you want bigger TC period.
Start with telling us what is your max you can carry?
