Hi Okmax... I'm a newbie here too, I just bought my 19' Bambi. I'm towing it with a Honda Ridgeline. I did a lot of reading here and elsewhere before I made my purchases and I think it saved me from some very expensive mistakes. I recommend reading "RVing Basics" by Bill and Jan Moeller. I'm sure there are other good books out there, but this one helped me a great deal with a general understanding of systems, capabilities, uses, and operating parameters. Regarding tow vehicle -- I went through the process like this: First, I decided about how big of a trailer I thought I would want. I wrote down it's weights (empty weight, loaded up with water and stuff, and the weight of the tongue of the trailer). Then I went shopping for a truck I liked that could safely handle that weight and a little more. Last, I went back and picked out my specific trailer with the limitations of my truck in mind. Hope that helps! Good luck!
