Hi folks,
We are new to camping. We have a 26' Jayco Eagle 5200#. My tow vehicle is a 2012 GMC 1500 pickup with tow package. My question is; do we really need wt distributing and/or anti-sway mechanisms? After studying these things, they don't look like they really do anything. I have towed this trailer several times already with no problems. I see dealers pulling rigs all the time with no wt dist bars.
I don't know where you live or camp, but come on out to Texas much less Wyoming or Montana with the wind catching that 26' sail that already weighs as much as your half ton truck and see what happens.
