Im ready for my family of 5 to buy our first camper. The lawn mower is now paid off, so I have available funds for a nice little bumper pulled trailer. Ive been looking at them all morning and im quickly realizing that there are literally hundreds of different manufacturers, models, floorplans and configurations. I have no idea what brand or model to even look at. The very first company I started looking at, Forrest River, has 16 different models that fit my criteria. AND THATS ONLY THE FIRST COMPANY!
Im feeling a bit overwhelmed and this only the first day ive even started looking.
I guess im here to ask a bit of advice.
Heres the truck:
2017 Ram 1500
3.21 gears
8 speed trans
4wd Crew Cab
It has 'some' of the towing package. I have built in trailer brakes, trans & oil cooler, and tow mirrors. It does not have anti-spin diff or the lower gear set... Seems strange to me.
Anyway, What would you guys recommend to tow behind this truck? I know I should be looking at 30ft and under, and also around 7,000gvwr or under... Is this correct?
Any help and advice is very much appreciated!
