I posted a camper specific thread in its sub forum but generally curious how people enjoy towing with a newer Tahoe. Any issues getting close to GVWR or in mountains, etc? Thanks, thinking of getting Tahoe and curious. Camper to be towed is a wildwood and has a total loaded weight around 6500...

Hi, curious if anyone is towing a 263BHXL or similar with a Tahoe? Curious what your experience is. Tahoe max is 8300 so plenty there but more interested in the cars performance and any other thoughts around towing experience. Thanks!

We have read a lot about how happy virtually all the Ford 150 owners are towing their Fifth Wheel 5.0 TA trailers. And there are a lot of details buried in those threads. If a couple of you don't mind some repetition, here's my scenario and what do you think: Ordered a 2024 Escape 5.0 TA last...

Anyone else towing with a Gen 3 Raptor? Wanting to know how you setup your WD hitch to accommodate the extremely soft rear suspension or anything else you add to level the load. I can get most of the sag out with my Fastway E2 WD Hitch, but you definitely feel it, tows great but looking to...

We got a new, used 2015 MB Sprinter chassis with a 2018 Coachmen Prism. Instead of paying for a 4-wheel flat towing installation for $6K, we would like to tow our 2015 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk on a U-Haul auto-trailer. I need to find out if our hitch towing capacity is sufficient to do the job...

I finished the Curt Flat Towing Base plate on my 2019 F-150 and Wiring Harness and I could not figure out where to install the Plug and Safety Brake switch. I wanted it hidden but the only option was under the hood, But I got an Idea to use the Bumper Guard, I used sheet metal and once I cut it...

We are new to the travel trailer world, and I wanted to see if anyone else is running a similar setup successfully or if we are under specced? We are in PA and won't be traveling more than 5-6hrs and nothing out west. Looking to purchase a Flagstaff Classic 826MBR with the following specs...

Hi all, I am wondering what most of you haul your FSX260 Toy haulers with ? I have a 2020 Ford F150 with the ECO Boost 3.5 and the max tow package. I use a Curt 10000# anti sway WDH hitch. I have set it up to the best of my knowledge the way Curt wants me to set it up. I watched their video and...

Hi folks, planning a trip out west and would like to go through St Louis to see the arch. We are coming out of the Raleigh area and are trying to determine the best route for road conditions, construction and traffic in 2024. Option 1 is I-40W through Asheville, Knoxville and Nashville...

I am trying to make an informed decision before hitting the road with my A-frame this year whether I need to use a WDH with my new to me 2015 Chevy 1500 Silverado. It is a crew cab with a short bed 4x4 and has a towing package. I have been using a WDH with a 2018 Toyota Highlander which worked...

Hello all, Im looking at getting my first travel trailer for my family of 4 (kids age 3 and 2) and the Apex Nano 194BHS fits all my requirements. My main question is what is the tongue weight your seeing when your loaded for a trip but without water? Id never be going anywhere without hookups...

I have a 22FBS with a trailer hitch on the back. It is rated for 300 lbs, which is meant to carry cargo; I interpret to be 300 pounds directly supported by the hitch. I have a small trailer that has a tongue weight on the order of 40 pounds. It weighs about 500 lbs, and I am wondering if the...

Good afternoon beautiful people! I honestly cannot believe how generous folks are to take so much time to write such comprehensive messages. What kindness! Heres my story and query. Just go a used E19 and towed home with my brother f150. Easy peasy. Looking at a used truck like a Titan or...

While I don't have the trailer at the moment as it's had a few issues already. Doesn't seem like the Dealer did a very good job during the inspection. We've already taken it around 3,000 miles. Tows great, might add a sway control hitch but haven't had any issues even in heavy wind areas.

Hello everyone, We currently have a 2017 Wolf Pup and like it a lot. We came across a 2014 Apex M-249 RBS in really great shape and we are thinking of getting it. It is a little roomier(slide-out) and also has some other features we like such a separate outside door to the bath, bigger...

I'm shopping for a new TV. Likely a 3/4 ton. Chevy's "Custom" trim comes equipped with 20" wheels only. Are 20" wheels okay for towing mid-size travel trailers? Does the tire size make a difference? ... would appreciate your thoughts and comments. I'm not concerned about MPG, and there...

I recently had a Blue Ox flat tow system added to my 2022 Berkshire XLT 45CA and 2024 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon X. Every time we tow the Jeep the Jeep security alarm goes off a few miles down the road. Is there a special way to lock the Jeep so the alarm system is not armed to mitigate this issue...

I was towing the rv home from Florida to Maryland and got a buldge in my tire on my 2016 f250. I put a spare on which is slightly smaller. I need to replace all the tires when I get home anyway as they have 55000 miles on them. I am currently running 295/65 r20 on my truck and honestly have...
