RE: The one specific suggestion you would make to RV makers...

I would like to see sales brocures with real weights, and the weight that all options add. Then people wouldn't have to guess if thier truck would haul it. Also more areo dynamic trailers for better MPG.

RE: Floating Pin Box

Trail-Air for us, and it just works. I would estimate that it took about 85% of the chucking out.

RE: Are trailer manufacturers unionized?

Quality will change when the manufacturer wants it to change. Well built RV's are out there now, but you pay more for them.

RE: jacking up a 5th wheel

Let me know if you find anyone willing to pay for anything that breaks when you are working on your own trailer. Lifting by the spring perch can be OK, and so can a Trailer-Aid; however, Contact your trailer's manufacturer before doing either.

RE: Provincial Parks sucked me in again

Most all government parks are doing some belt tighting. In Texas they are raiseing some fees, and asking for contributions to cover other things.

RE: Toughest trucks

Just once I would like to set my pin weight down in the bed of a Rigeline. Just to see it cry.

RE: Duramax TV Problem

Really you guys don't think that brand new truck breaking down is a problem? Yes GM stood behind it, and I would expect them too. I'm with the OP. Something wasn't right from the begining. Either the part was bad, or wasn't installed correctly. Either shoddy part, or shoddy labor building it.

RE: Over length towing

If you do get caught they may make you change the setup before letting you move on. Better have 2 drivers with you. That would also put a lot of weight on the hitch & reciever of the truck & trailer. Most likely not engineered for the extra weight.

RE: RAM 2500 Shock recommendations

I like the yellow & blue Bilstiens. They were a huge improvement over the worn out stock shock.

RE: discuss towing w/ Cad 500 vs other car

Better stay with an engine that has at least 250 HP, or that will be the decideing factor in how much weight it will pull. The Chevy 350 can be made to tow. Better would be a SB 400 CI.

RE: TT wheel hub tension/spin?

The brakes should be heard, but still able to make a rotation or two before it stops after a good roll. Remember on the bearings that are a little loose are better than bearings that are too tight.

RE: Looking at getting a new 5th wheel and truck

I have a SRW, and I would say get the Dually. Much better towing experience with that weight.

RE: ULSD....Effect

Some people do a delete of the Particle filter & EGR crap. It voids the warrenty of thier truck, but runs much better. Also gets way better MPG's.

RE: Portable Fire Pit

When the state park people say no wood campfires they mean that. The Propane rig was the only campfire they allowed.
