We have a 2022 truck which is the largest we could get since it has to fit into the garage (HOA) rules. We want to get an Oliver II
The truck is a V6 with 8 speed auto, heavy duty axles with 4:10 gearing, has a GVWR of 6150 with a payload capacity of 1600. The wheelbase is 137. It has a max tow package with larger brakes, upgraded coils for towing, added engine cooling, plus higher amp alternator. anti sway, electronic trailer brakes, Class 4 hitch, CVWR of 12,800 with tow capacity of 7650. Tongue: 765.
We would like to get the Ollie II due to the beds and a few other options. I ran some numbers. I took into into account all the tanks, propane and how full they would be going in and out from boondocking (using composting toilet) before additional cargo. We only carry about 600-700 additional pounds cargo in the trailer and only about 400 additional pounds in truck (after 290 pounds of people and tongue weight accounted for).
The numbers come out okay for the Elite II Keeping us down near 80% when all taken into consideration.
Need second set of eyes. Do these numbers work?
While I would love to get a bigger truck (Titan, Tundra, etc) , that is not possible (no driveway allowed, cant buy one, and storage of the additional truck too costly where I live) so not looking for suggestions there. Maybe in the future.
No other trailer meets outer needs besides the Ollie II
Just want someone to look at my numbers and say whether this works.
