Hensley Arrow and 37 Foot long, 11 foot Tall TT

Hi All,

We just had our maiden voyage with our new TT Toy Hauler and the hensley SwiftArrow Hitch.

In a word I was Very Impressed (I guess that is two words).

The Evergreen Amped 32 GS (our new TH TT)is a very tall TT. It's sides are 11 and an half feet tall. At 37 feet in length, it presents a big area for semi wake and crosswinds.

Our particulars:
Fully loaded, the measured Tongue weight of our 32GS was 1200 pounds. I would estimate its Loaded weight at about 11500 pounds. Towed it with 2010 2WD CC Diesel Ford Super Duty.

Prior to the the Amped 32GS we had a 5th wheel. With the Hensley Swift Arrow, this TT trailed about as well as our previous 5th wheel. Rarely noticed semis passing, 25 MPH crosswind had little affect, and the ride was smooth and quiet with little driver fatigue,....best way I can describe it is "very 5th wheel like"...

truly a great hitch....most impressed....

  • Wow that is one LONG bumper pull. I once towed a 38' 2 bedroom older unit TT, i think it was about a 130 mile trip one way, i towed it for a friend who was going to fix it up and live in it. Funny thing is i really didnt notice it behind our F350 using nothing but a regular 2 5/16 ball. It sure was long, drug it thru every driveway, scraped it good.

    It never swayed at all, that was a surprise.
