One of these little guys?
Yes. Can't make up our mind if we want bunks or not, but still close enough spec wise I think. I wondered about the need for the WD hitch, but most on here seem adamant you might die without. Plan is to drive whatever I buy for awhile, then decide what I think. I'll end up deciding with caution I'm sure but may want to experience some shake and sway first.
Our first TT was a '95 Aljo Deluxe 1850. It had tandem axles and about 450 tongue weight. Dealer insisted on WD. We towed with WD but no sway control. Did well but we did feel trucks passing. Once I got used to it, not a problem. I felt we had too much WD though so we tried it without the bars. Much better. We ended up towing it with just a ball on a straight bar after than and sold the WD hitch. I agree. I'd try it and see. If you don't need it, it sure makes it easy.
