Re: Trailer Tug and Pull

What is the weight of the camper when you are towing it?

You mentioned the dry weight - does this include options for the camper? (fridge, water heater, etc). I say this since many times companies try to bring the weights down as much as possible with creative omission. Add everything back to the weight including your gear, water, batteries, etc and see where you are.

The other thing to check is the tongue weight.

Lastly remember that towing capacity is a function of both weight and the aerodynamics of the trailer. A trailer with a large front surface will cause a lot of wind drag.
