It looks like the empty weight of the trailer is around 5275 LBS, and has a gross weight rating of 6440. Trailer is 33'7" long

I'm sure Sunline Fan will pop in to confirm/correct me if those figures are not correct.

Any time you figure out how much tow vehicle you need, always go by the gross vehicle weight rating and not by the dry weight. You would be surprised how many people buy a tow vehicle that is fine for an unloaded trailer and end up seriously over their tow vehicle's rated capacity.

That sounds about right to me, but I didn't look them up. I seem to remember those were the rough numbers for a non slide Seville.
