I've done some checking and i get mixed info on the actual weight but I believe the dry weight is around 4800 lbs. I'm in the process of getting a set of LT tires to handle the load. I also have the prodigy brake controller and weight distribution hitch. We live in Boise ID. I think the elevation is around 3000 ft. Will we be ok towing this? Any advice for a first time RVer?

I think this is the exact same trailer my brother used to tow with his 02 tundra. If i remember right, the tongue weight was 500lbs or so.
If it's the same one, it's a really nice trailer.
I think you'll be fine, especially with the way you're planning for it. Good work for a first timer.
My bro's tundra did just fine with this load, and i don't forsee any problems for you. I think the water tank is right up front, if i remember right so you'll need to watch this & plan on towing with little to no water. Otherwise, you'll be riding on the bumpstops. Airbags would be nice for you to have.
I'm going to dig up some pics for you. I am almost positive it's the same trailer.
