We picked up our new Grand Design Reflection 337RLS FW on Monday, and hit the road Tuesday. We pulled it from Tucson to Roosevelt Lake near Globe AZ. It was 138 miles, with several 7% and 8% grades. The Ford TV handled it great, and the rig pulled very nice. We found just a few very minor corrections that need to be made, but otherwise, I was very impressed with the quality of the rig.Hoping this pic will post okay.Edit: I have no idea why I can't get a picture to post on this forum. I'm not sure why it's so difficult.

Congrats...very nice. Here, I'll help you.

Nice rig and a nice first tow with it. Will look for you around Tucson. :C

One more try at photo posting. I've resized the image to less than 100kb, and set the pixel size to max of 640. I'm using flickr as the photo hosting site. But no luck.

Glad everything went well. Looked up the rig. It's a beauty!

Nice Setup! I have been up and down that road many times even way, way out past Miami and Globe. Beautiful country there thru the canyon(s). Watch your speed coming back down thru Superior and don't worry about those that are behind you. They will wait. Have a safe and enjoyable trip.

I was just at Lazy Days in Tampa over the weekend and looked at the Grand Design 5vr's. They are very nice!!! I am definitely keeping these on my list when I plan on buying in a couple of years.

With Flickr, there are a few ways to grab a link: use the "grab the HTML/BBCode and choose BBCode. (It's the little box with an arrow coming out of the top of it. The icon is to the bottom right of your image on Flickr.). Copy the code and paste it in your post.

This is what it will look like (with your picture, of course.)
