Take a look at the smaller TMs - the smallest 2417 is just over 2,000 lbs, and I believe the smaller sport deck model, 16RD Sport Deck, is about 1,700 lbs. Depending on your family size, they may work.

Also, check out the A-liners and Chalet folding trailers. They are A-frame units, which really used to restrict headroom, but they've recently added some optional dormer fold-outs to change that. I saw some at the RV show in Hershey a few weeks ago, and they seemed quite roomy. (Kinda like this: http://aliner.com/campers/classic/, but I'm not sure if those specific dormers in that picture are hard sided. In any event, they are well under 2,000 lbs.....looks to be in the 1,700 lbs range.

In my opinion, it's hard to beat a canvas pop-up for cost, size, weight, and overall versatility. They are pretty amazing units.
