Looked at some fuzions online..... We're gonna go check out a couple RV dealers here in the twin cities saturday to get a little better idea.

Edit.....would like it to stay around 12000 to 13000 gvwr but am a little flexible......
Most of the triple axle T.H. type trailers are in the 19,000 to 20,000 lb GVWR range. 12,000, up to almost 17,000 lbs is usually a tandem axle. So if you are definitely wanting to go with a triple axle, that likely will require a Dually truck in order to get the payload capacity you need. Some of those larger T.H.ers are putting 4000+ lbs on pin weight down. I have a friend that he and his wife full time in a triple that has a 20K GVWR and their pin will usually run in the 4500 to 4600 lb....but again, they are fully loaded, as they full time.

Excessive payload capacity is a wonderful thing
