Thanks for the replies and so noted on the Expy versus X description.
Looks like I have a 6900 lb tow rating so I should be OK with my 6000 GVW Layton. Even fully loaded (I don't carry water in the tanks) I shouldn't be anywhere near 6K, I believe the unladen weight is 3800, so I figured fully loaded I'll probably be between 4500-5K.
The issue I'm having with my tow mirrors situation is everyone I look at (including the CIPA style slip on, says "not for us with OEM mirrors with the factory intregated turn signal, which mine has. Does anyone make any that would work with my OEM mirrors or am I going to be out of luck? I have a pair of cheapo strap on onese I used yesterday, which are COMPLETLY useless.
Thanks,
Greg
Go back to CIPA, and look closely. I have their mirrors for my 150, and yes they are designed to let the intergrated turn signals show thru. They had both the plain, and turn signal mirrors. About 65 buck a pair.
BTW, We towed our 6000lb 27' TT with a 02 EB Expe. It did a GREAT job. Plenty of power, and no sway. And our Tow cap was 6800LBS
