Light weight TT

New here and new to the rv world. Beginning to research what to buy. We have a Nissan Titan and would like to look at light weight smaller-21-24 foot. Any suggestions and what is best time to buy?

Best time to buy is when you get a deal you really like. You need to look at the numbers on your tow vehicle including the payload from the door sticker. Then find a floor plan you like that meets your needs and fits your numbers when fully loaded. There are lots of trailers to choose from in many brands. Have fun shopping.

I had an 08 Titan and pulled a 25 ft. TT (22 ft. box) that weighed 6,000 pounds ready to go. I used a Reese SC hitch and the combination performed admirably. What I'm trying to say is that you don't have to go too light.

Take a look at Lance. Well built and lite. My 1995 model is only 5200# fully loaded (not including personal items).
