This is the first pic I have after picking up from Dune Sport. We have only stayed in it one night so far. We are looking forward to many more and lots of fun.

Very nice...


Thank you!

I know it sounds stupid but I feel safer on my MC than I would in a "Not So Smart" car!


Not to me it doesn't.....I feel much safer on my bike. And as some of us know....a hell of a lot more fun!


It's all about the journey...not the destination!

Looks like you have some leveling work to do.

Yeah rhagfo... I have been told that. I am new to the RV world so is this something I need to do by letting air out of my truck air bags?

Your truck looks to be sitting level. Might need to flip the axel on your trailer.

As long as it feels good pulling, I wouldn't worry about it anymore. It's mainly because your truck is lifted or just the trucks ride height.
Just because everything isn't perfectly level, doesn't mean it isn't safe going down the highway.

I WOULD "worry about it" since the rear tires are carrying a lot more weight. With ST tires he may be over the rear tires ratings.

^^^^ What those 2 said.....

In addition, I can't see very well, but it does not look like the axles are flipped ? Usually they sit a lot higher in the air, I MAY BE WRONG, as I really cannot see it well enough.

That is a lot of additional weight on the rear 2 tires..
