Default Lightest 20'-25' trailer fo 5.4?

Looking to get a 20'-25' cargo tandem axle trailer with a 10400 gvwr for my 07 5.4 with 3.55's on 27" tires with a max tow of about 8100 lbs.

However when empty and even with the lighter duty axles these trailers seem to weigh a ton, ranging from 3000-3500 lbs at around $6500-$8500.

My question is how light can an all aluminum 8.5x7x20' trailer weigh? Was looking to get something hopefully under 2k pounds empty.

Thanks.

Is there a reason you need one so light. It doesn't seem to me that 3000-3500 will be to much.

I need it as a cargo trailer, so I want to haul cargo around, not empty trailer weight.

The lightest I've found so far is 2500lbs.
