So, let's say we make people buying a camper at a dealership watch this - what's their take away? How do you make lessons from this video that can be actionable for the people watching it?
1.That they NEED to know what the correct tow vehicle, tow set up is for what RV they are buying. Ot that could be the consequences.
And not just taking a salesman saying "Yup your truck and/or SUV can tow that" as pure fact. Most newbies don't have a clue if their vehicle can tow what they want to buy. And RV salesman prey on that fact to make a sale.
2. And it also shows just what can happen when driving too fast towing. My bet is on that a newbie has NO idea that you can flip ass over apple cart like in those videos when towing a trailer.
It would at least give them pause to think about just what they are buying AND to ask questions what can happen to their precious family if they have not thoroughly researched and learned everything related to towing BEFORE they buy a TT.
I still think newbies would benefit tremendously from viewing those videos.
I have met over 20 RV'ers in my travels that said they have never towed in their life and just walked into a dealership and bought one. When you full-time like I do you see it all.:R
And BTW.....everyone one of them I had the pleasure of talking to had dangerously too small of a tow vehicle that had no business being on the road towing. Henceforth these newbies need some help before they buy their first TT.
