If I were looking for a TT and I noticed that the manufacturer stated that the trailer is not to be towed with full tanks, I wouldn't buy that trailer. How do you expect to ever boondock without water?
I agree. If Jayco has that disclaimer I won't be buying a Jayco.
I have traveled with all tanks full at times. Not being able to travel with tanks full would be a deal breaker for me.
OK, I'll take this opportunity to wipe the egg off my face and enjoy some fresh crow. Went into the owner's manual for our WhiteHawk and found this:
"Never travel with full black or grey water holding tanks. This not only wastes
your fuel but depending on the location of the tank(s), it can affect your
tow vehicle handling characteristics."
The warning was for gray and black tanks, not the FW tank. My apologies, guess the CRS is getting worse.........:S
But, I did read a post on the Jayco Owners' Forum in the last month where someone reported their FW tank fell out of the belly. I have also seen posts on this Forum with owners of various other brands of towable RV's reporting dropped FW tanks. So, it does make you wonder how substantial the support and bracing for these tanks really is.......:h
