I ask this because I am looking into updating my Globetrotter's hitch setup so that I can tow it with both my '06 Sequoia and my '69 Cutlass. According to Airstream, my tongue weight is 396# empty, so I would guess it closer to 500+ with full propane & fresh water tanks filled. I anticipate that I should be using 600# bars. Is this correct?
Absolutely correct.

Using a Reese straight line would be perfect for your use.
