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?

Depends.
Do you have a family of 5? Do you plan to load firewood, 4 bikes, genset, gas, lawn chairs, dog fence, blue tote, etc.. in the bed of the truck?
Look inside the trailer. On the inside of one of the cabinet doors, there should be a weight lable that says what the trailer weighed from the factory. Let us know what that says. If it's not in there, hook the trailer up and go weigh it. Then we can give you the answer.
