I am not sure what you mean by "TR" in your stated model number. I believe the model 2720 are the 2720, 2720SL and 2720SD. Regardless, 3500 pounds of towing capability leaves little to no margin when you add common options like AC, awning and a few more things. Then add regular cargo and it is not long before your trailer is 4200 pounds like mine is. Then add the hills you mention and the obvious cargo you will add to the mini van compartment, I see a problem with this situation.

In the end, it may not be can you pull the trailer but rather, can you safely stop your trailer.

I love my 2720SD and encourage the TrailManor purchase but would also encourage having a tow vehicle that has more margin in the pulling capabilities and handle the tongue weight.
