Nice trailer. How does the Armada do in pulling that house? I too tow with an Armada and it is a very capable sure footed workhorse but that is a lot of trailer. 35 feet and 7400 dry is well exceeding the Armada’s capabilities. Sure, it will pull it and with the power and torque of the Armada it will pull it just fine but the length and potentially the weight puts that trailer in ¾ ton land.
Enjoy the trailer!
I realize at that weight the trailer will be approaching the max per the Armada's tow rating (9,000lbs), but curious as to why you say it's exceeding its capabilities? I'm looking at the ProPride hitch system as an option if the sway is unruly, even with the friction sway bar. I'll be taking it out on the road for an evaluation ride in a few days, and will report back. - DavidPExplorer

What's the new TV? ... the new unit looks super nice!
Thanks! We're definitely excited to have the additional room. Same TV: 2011 Nissan Armada.

Getting excited for our new TT to arrive next week...this was our old setup, with which we traveled across the country twice already, and our new trailer with shots from the dealership.
Old setup, just sold a month ago:


And the new rig:

I finally had my new to us 2011 Cedar Creek Silver Back 29rl delivered to our lot in Northern MI. last Sat. Loving the view out of the windows. It is much more suited to us than the bunkhouse we bought for the grandkids. I think we will get many years of enjoyment from this Fifth Wheel. It is amazing what you find when you actually take possession of the 5er. I have to say, they were not as good of housekeepers as I am. I spent all of Sat. and most of Sunday detailing the inside. Next Saturday if our water is turned on I will be doing the outside.

Chomping at the bit to take this beauty out this year. Only got to take it out a couple times after we purchased it last fall.
Nice setup! How does the Armada do with that trailer and what's its weight? We're about to take delivery of our new 35' TT and will be towing with an Armada as well. - chr_Explorer

Nice truck, and good trailer match.
I'm a little biased with a previous 2008 Sport Trac XLT 4.6L 3V 4X4 truck.
They do make good TV's, don't they!
