Hey all, I ran into this entirely by accident looking for something else. It seems the 21 Series (and smaller) may be decently suited for the Ascent. The 23 Series is, in my opinion, too large, and a bit too heavy.
The 19 Series and 21 Series are tandem axle with lower tongue weights than comparably sized trailers from others, which should make managing them easier. The 17 Series is VERY light, so, even with a single axle, the tongue weight starts very low.
GVWR on all of them is 5,000 pounds, but that's with a LOT of cargo weight (eg: 1,360 pounds on the 17B series)
Of course, the shape isn't the most conducive to towing, or to fuel efficient towing, but, they're also not massively tall (the Heartland Edge I tow is a foot and a half taller). Heck, the fiberglass (roof) ends at 8.1'. Not bad at all.
Thoughts?
