    Check out RV Trader, and just filter your search for what you're looking for. Should give you a good idea what's available.

    Got mine brand new @ camping world. They told me it’s all T&M that determines the price (Jayco). Didn’t feel like I got ripped off. Searched CL for months and decided to go new.

    I might be selling mine at the end of the season. Not sure I'm the camping type. I have learned a lot if I keep camping/traveling. Happy to answer questions.

    It's the first place I look. Bought a trailer about 3 weeks ago from CL as well. Took me a few months to find the one I wanted for the price but still got the best deal I was able to get.

    We upgraded this year, be sure to check tongue weight added to your max payload calculation.

    A good dual sway WDH will even things out and prevent sag and sway.

    Rear suspension support like SumoSprings, Timbrens, or Airbags will also help sag and prevent bobbing. The third option is the most comfortable for long distances but affects non-towing ride quality.

    I’m assuming you already have a P3 to sync trailer brakes. Setting will need to be changed for a heavier trailer.

    I bought this 2016 Starcraft Launch 17SB in June of 16' it was one of the last 2016 models, they wanted it gone to make room for the 17's. I saved about $4k and got a 2 year warranty. 2770 lbs dry weight.

    Either an Equalizer or Blue Ox WDH, the bars are wt rated. They both come with shank hitch/ball. I personally think the latter is easier to adjust and use.

    Tekonsha P3 if you don’t have a brake controller built into your truck, I forgot some Tundras have those already.

    Because of the higher tongue wt, bobbing over bumps nose high isn’t fun, steering will feel squirrelly (I have
