I have a noob question please.
I am a total noob. I am trying to educate myself. Let me start my question with telling you about my setup. I bought the 2015 Ram 1500 4x4 Eco Diesel with trailer brakes and Air Ride. I bought this rig because of the amount of diving I do. I put around 500 miles a week on my truck. When I bought it, I did not even consider what it could tow. I kicked myself when I found out that its max tow is only 7200lb. Well, I Was researching the 30+mpg and through in the trailer brakes just in case I wanted to tow. It is my first truck.
I bought my TT last Friday and have not picked it up yet. It is a Keystone Hideout 23 RKSWE. When the sale person mention Weight distribution sway Hitch, I had no clue. All I knew is that I wanted a TT to take my family camping.
At the schedule pick up, I know they are going to try and sell my things that I have not researched. So I started to read and read then read some more. I then through in several YouTube videos. I then came across a post on RV.net that mention someone using the Andersen hitch. I was leaning that way, but I could not find many negative post about it. This person kept mentioning how much he loved it, but then one post he said that he was no longer using it. He instead went with pro something. I had researched it, but thought it was a lot of money. I also researched the Hensley along with 3 or 4 others.
All of that so I can ask this question.
I called Hensley and bought it. With my setup, is my decision to buy the Hensley Arrow over kill? Would it have been just as good buying the Eaz-lift Trekker? In my short time researching everything, I did notice some strife between two of the top Hitch companies. I'm not trying to start anything. I just want to learn, be safe and have fun.
I have a lot more questions about shipping weight and gross weight. How close can I get to my max tow weight before I start to have issues with safety?
Thank you for any help that you can give. It is very nice to meet all of you. I am very tired, but I wanted to start this post because Friday will come fast. I am sorry if it is a little disorganized.
