I'd like to upgrade soon to a larger HTT... a bunkhouse model maybe 4 for 5 feet longer.
Our's is the unique 21ft with rear bunks across the back.

Ok, so it's not my trailer, but it's a picture that conveys a lesson. All too often on here you see banter about people trying to buy trailers bigger than their capabilities (or their vehicle's capabilities). There are good reasons to not go beyond these capabilities.
The photo is from a MVA in our fire district from last weekend. That's a brand new Durango that was pulling a brand new trailer by an under-experienced driver.

But the new models equipped with the 3.6L Pentastar V6 engine can tow up to 6,200 pounds and with a 5.7L HEMI V8 with Fuel Saver Technology, you can tow up to 7,400 pounds.

The things that come to those that wait will be the junky stuff left by those that got there 1st.
Remember; never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.

We brought it home today! It's just so exciting just seeing it sitting in our driveway, next to the van!
