When I check slide-in camper rating sheet for ours, it say "Not recommended." One thing I notice on the specs page is that other than model trim (ST, SLT, etc.), equipment is not factored in. For example, there are no stated capacity differences for options like the dual coolers and brake controllers. Obviously, such things have a non-zero effect on how towed weight is handled. I figure I'm okay if I use calculated GVWR pin weights as I mentioned before and keeping that within my calculated/remaining rear GAWR. Now, I'm starting to think of the mechanism by which this could be accomplished, i.e., the hitch, and how that would factor in.

Edit: Moved hitch comments to separate towing thread.
