I'm a complete rookie at towing, but the wife & I are considering a travel trailer. We went to an RV show, talked a guy from an RV place that I'm pretty sure told me to have about 1000 lbs of headroom between my gross trailer weight & Explorer rated towing limit.
So, I've been looking at travel trailers with a GVWR between 3500 and 4000 lbs.
But, then I remembered about this site and thought I'd come see what everyone else is towing and how.
Be careful getting towing advice from salesmen, they are salesmen. Look into getting good sway control along with your weight distributing hitch. Another good resource is http://www.rv.net/forum/
