WOW, thanks for the responses. I really do appreciate the help. The trailer is for 2 people and my truck is equipped to handle mx trlr weight of 9500# and a GCWR of 15000#. The only thing I am really concerned about is the tongue weight of only 600# w/o getting a weight distributing hitch.
Again, thanks for the help!
You ain't getting anything over a #6000 TT without needing a WD hitch with a 1500 series truck... I use one for a #5000 TT..
Oh, and that #9500 "tow rating" does not necessary mean a tongue heavy RV either.. ;)
As far as slide out or not.. Totally personal choice.. I've only got a 22' trailer and don't have a slide and it's just fine for 2 of us.
Do I like the rigs with slides in them? Sure, they are great! But, I've got the rig I've got and it's paid for! :)
I'm outside under the awning, even when it's raining out. I come in when it's windy and cold out, but I've also wrapped the sides of the awning with tarps to keep with wind and rain at bay and my Mr Heater going to stay under the awning! ;)
Good luck!
