  1. Thanks for the help, everyone, and sorry for the delayed follow up. I finally had a chance to see a few trailers in person this weekend. I really like the Rockwood Roo 183 Hybrid, which has enough beds for us and our kids, BUT at 3904 pounds and 21'3", I"m not sure that a 4Runner could handle it. The 4Runner can tow 5,000 pounds per specs, BUT I know that just because the manufacturer says it can doesn't mean it's safe. I'm wondering if we need to upgrade to an 8 cylinder Toyota Sequoia which is rated for 7,000 pounds. Hate to spend the extra money, but safety is key for us with 3 small children. We also saw a Coleman Light Bunkhouse 2405, but at 5,025 pounds and 27 feet, I'm wondering if it's not safe to tow with a Sequoia. Thoughts? Sorry for all of the questions!!
  2. Thanks everyone! I hadn't considered popup/tent trailers, but I will definitely research them, since it seems they would give us a little more room without adding a lot of weight. We would mainly be using this for weekend camping trips. I'd like to have a toilet and shower if possible, but I realize that's asking a lot given the weight we are trying to stay under.
  3. My husband and I are interested in purchasing a travel trailer to tow with a 2018 Toyota 4Runner (towing capacity of 5,000). The only caveat is that we have three kids, ages 5, 3, and 2, so it needs to actually sleep 5. It seems like we need to stay under 3,500 pounds or so. Can anyone recommend a travel trailer that would fit the bill? Thanks in advance!
