The canyons GVWR is 5300lbs. That’s the most it can weigh. Not what it weighs. There should be a yellow sticker with its CCC. Take that number and subtract it from the GVWR and that will be what it weighs. You will have to add in anything else after the truck was built.
The MH will have a 5000lb rated hitch. No need to change it out for your current truck.
The MH should have a 26k on GCWR and a 22klb GVWR. That would be 4K lbs more than the GVWR. But RV manuf leave 1k lbs the in the GVWR to get the extra 1k lbs so it can have the 5k lb tow capacity. I see the MH has a 3300lb CCC. Minus propane and if you carry water. So let’s say you only use 2k lbs of that. That leaves 1300lbs that can be used for towing.
Best thing to do is weigh the truck without you in it and then weigh the MH loaded for a trip with everything and everyone in it. This will give you your Real GVWR. Then you can figure what you can tow from there.
