Congrats on the new RV! I have always like the Outbacks and am hoping to buy one in the next year.
Take a look at this thread on WDH principals and this one on how to adjust it. I am also of the opinion that air bags have little place with bumper pull trailers. My prior tow vehicle was at to 500 pounds over GVWR every camping trip. With the WDH adjusted correctly, the rear end never dropped more than 1.5" and handling was fantastic up to 75mph.
Thanks, we really like the outback. A bunk house with a rear slide out queen bed would have been the best set up for us, but the condition and price ($6K with WDH) were hard to pass. We feel that after a couple of seasons of enjoying the outback, we could upgrade to a larger trailer with bunks and not loose (much) money if we maintain the outback well.
Thanks for the links, wow, lot of great info!
