Thanks for the Forum. Currently searching lighter weight travel trailers/toy haulers. Tow vehicle will be Hyundai Santa Cruz. 5K max towing capacity so I would like trailer to not be more than 4K loaded.

You will be pretty limited in travel trailer choices that are that light weight. Welcome to the forum.

Hi and Welcome to FRF.
You're going to be limited to a 500lbs max hitch weight. So don't make the mistake that many newbies do, by using bogus dry weight numbers.
