I love the camper construction and considered putting one of these on a Landcruiser a few years ago.
A GVM of 2730 is a bit low for a vehicle like this, in my view.
Just check the ACTUAL weight on a registered weighbridge yourself to ensure that there is enough for water, fuel and all your 'stuff'.

Cheers,
Peter
