Trailer Length
Cargo Capacity
The cargo weight capacity on this trailer is acceptable for weekend family excursions, including bringing along some toys.
Possibly a 1/2 ton truck, but only in specific circumstances. Singles and couples with no kids or pets can get away with some 1/2 ton trucks.
For most people, a 3/4 ton truck is the way to go. Even if a half-ton would work, 3/4 ton trucks are built for towing. They have stronger axles, stiffer suspensions, and better brakes. Possible trucks include the Ford F-250, Ram 2500, and GMC 2500.
Look inside the door frame for a sticker that lists the payload capacity. The vehicle needs to be able to carry the tongue weight of the trailer, passengers, and gear. For a driver, passenger, and gear, that means about 2,929 pounds.

When buying a trailer, you'll need a few basics. Usually, the power cord is included, but you'll need to purchase hoses for water and sewer. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. Purchasing items such as those below through the links on this page help to support this site.
At 50ft, this hose is long enough for almost every campsite, while being soft and flexible enough to pack away easily.
This hose is a good balance of cost and durability. This is the most common hose I see at any given campground.
Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems offer you piece of mind while towing. TST units show both pressure and temperature, alerting you to tire problems before they become a major situations.
Lithium batteries need higher current to fully charge. Lots of similar units are just built for lead acid batteries.
