My husband and I are looking at getting our first TT and have narrowed it down to the Timber Ridge bunk house. I grew up on boats in the PNW so this will be a first experience for me. I am curious as to what others who own one think. Do you use all 4 seasons, as we are planning on doing? We have a 2012 F-150 CC, 5.4 L, FX4, long bed with 1:3.73. I have been told so many different tow capacities by the dealership we bought the truck from. I am getting numbers from 9200 to 10200 so this is all a bit confusing. Any help and advice is greatly appreciated.
A 2012 F-150 doesn't come with the 5.4L V8. Maybe you mean the 5L V8?
That 4x4 SCrew has a MAX payload of 1570# and a tow capacity of 9100#, unless you are fortunate enough to have the HD Payload option.
We too are looking a Timber Ridge trailers. They seem very well built, off-road capable, and 4-season capable, especially if you get the thermal-pane option and heating pad option.
They are wood-framed and not light though. The 240RKS we are looking at could well have a 900# hitch weight and weigh 7200# once we load it up. The 270DBHS (bunkhouse) weighs about 1100# more.
