  1. Thanks for all the info! So the 3500lbs on the Dodge site refers to GVWR? I was looking at "hybrid" campers that have the pop out "tent like" ends and say are made for SUV's. Here are the stats from the site. Dry Hitch Weight 239 lb. (108 kg ) Unloaded Vehicle Weight 3,170 lb. (1,438 kg ) Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) 4,441 lb. (2,014 kg ) Cargo Carrying Capacity 1,233 lb. (559 kg ) I dont plan on loading it up with anything to crazy. Just normal stuff like water gas bedding and the likes. Does that stuff all count in the GVWR? Just trying to figure out which number to look at that goes towards that 3500. The main camp grounds we go to isnt up in a mountain or anything. No major hills and all freeway/highway. Thanks again.
  2. I am looking for a small trailer to tow with my 2010 Journey SXT SWD. I plan on getting the transmission coolant to be able to tow the 3500 that Dodge says is my max. So when I am shopping campers what weight do I look at? I was at a RV show and they would say weight is 3450 or some would say dry weight. Online shopping I see the unloaded weight as an example 3202 and the GVWR as 4473. So which do I go by? Is this example camper able to be towed by my Journey or am I looking for even lighter camper? If I said anything that needs to be corrected please correct me. I know nothing about towing and just want a camper to hold 2 adults and 3 children. Thanks
