Contradicting Tow Vehicle Advise
First off, I'm a newbie here and something of a newbie at RVing so apologies in advance for any transgressions. A brief history: We started with a used 2004 Caravan Micro-Lite and a 2002 Nissan Pat...

As I mentioned in an earlier post we bought a 2015 GMC Sierra SLT Texas Edition with Max Duty Tow Package, tow rating 10,000. Since we are unlikely to get anywhere near 7,000 max and a tongue weight of no more than 800lb we should do fine.
This is my very first new vehicle and my first truck. I am really impressed by the design features of this truck as well as the build quality. I'm a musician and have to carry two amps, one for myself and one for our fearless leader. His amp sounds like **** so I loan him my '65 Deluxe non-reverb (for any of you guitarists out there). With the back seats folded they stand side by side like it was made for them and I can still drop the smaller seat. I just delivered a chest of drawers for my daughter hauling it behind the seats as well.
I'm looking for a park not too far to test out the towing on this thing. As you might have guessed, I'm pretty stoked.
BTW, having had a very near disaster the first time we took our new trailer to the coast, some idiot stole the hitch pin and I didn't notice, I've bought a locking pin and a Trimax lock for the coupler even though the trailer is parked in front of our house. Seems like thieves have either got braver or dumber. Either way I'm taking no chances.
