Camping off-grid & batteries/propane/solar

The 4Runner has pulled a travel trailer in the past before so it wired up and has a Prodigy in it and looks like an eight-pin connector (6 pins surrounding two) mounted near the hitch receiver. Is that what you mean it needs? They will check it out again though they already did when I first went there. The wiring for one vehicle is included in the price- regardless of what you pay for the trailer. One batt and one propane tank is included as well as a 2-hour walkthrough and "training" on how to use things. They are more than happy to swap things out and credit me as needed. One concern the dealer had was that the 1575 has a narrow front end so I will discuss more with them tomorrow. I'll also discuss the E2 vs, simple sway control. I talked to the service guys again and he said that as log as I did not go crazy loading up heavy stuff in the front storage of the trailer, I would not need an E2 for the 4Runner since the axle was very centered on this Lance, and to run it that way.

Since I have to go to the dealership tomorrow and wire the Jeep (they include free wiring for one vehicle, even though I will not tow with the Jeep) since the 4Runner is already wired up for trailer brakes.

Your 4 Runner must be wired out to a 7-pin Bargman connector so all circuits are active. You say it's "wired up for trailer brakes" but does that mean it also is wired with an active charge line? ... it had better be, 'cause you're going to need it. That said, nothing is "free" ... you're paying for this service regardless so if it's something you can do without, like that single G27 battery, then you shouldn't be paying for it. I guess now you're committed to this deal but if you'd asked here beforehand you might have been able to avoid some of this unnecessary expense. :(
