I can't put it on the back of the teardrop because it would interfere with the kitchen door and mess up the weight balance bad. So unless I get a Maverick or Gladiator it needs to be small enough to lift onto the rack on the front, or maybe add a little motorcycle rack that has the ramp. I don't mind having "too much" tongue weight, I don't think that's actually possible assuming you stay under the limits of the tow vehicle, but found it's pretty easy to have too little weight on the hitch loading up a cargo box on the back of a camper.

The US Navi does seem to have a couple of adds like the cargo box and a better display with gas gauge not on the original India version. Of course importing something adds a ton to anything "inexpensive". A few hundred on a $20,000 purchase is peanuts, on a $1,800 purchase it seems like a lot.
