Weight Police is in trouble now

The trailer suspension is the weak part for RV fifth wheel trailers. Most manufacturers put the bare minimum suspension which in includes flimsy hangers, grade 3 half inch bolts, minimal springs, minimal wheel bearing and last but not least minimal brakes. This new towing product does not help with the trailer suspension, but helps for allowing the trailer to track the TV. The only disadvantage I can see with this product is it increase the gross combined weight and increase the total length. Also the cost is $10,000 so one needs to consider if the cost is worth the advantages. One still needs a 1 ton truck to tow a 16,000 GVW trailer because of the GCW. A F350 GCW would be out of specification with this additional towing device with a 16000 lb trailer.

Don't forget the junk tires. :-)
