Which Travel Trailer Is Right For Me? Understanding Your Towing Capacity

We have hundreds of travel trailers of all weights for sale! Depending on your family’s needs, we can make it easy to pick the perfect travel trailer that will make your vacations memorable and fun for years to come. You can choose from floor plans which include bunk houses, outdoor entertainment, lofts, and more, but the very first thing you need to determine is the weight of RV you can tow.

HOW MUCH CAN I TOW?

This is an important step because trying to haul a travel trailer that’s way too heavy for your vehicle’s towing capacity is asking for trouble. Fortunately, we have an easy RV towing guide that will help you determine the maximum dry weight your vehicle can tow. Understanding your towing capacity is essential to keeping your vehicle in good shape! Use our RV towing guide and then start RV shopping for a travel trailer within these weight parameters to help narrow your search:
