Hey guys... Looked around the forum but couldn't find the exact answer. I'm pulling a 28ft jayco trailer with a 2015 F150 supercab with 5.0L and 3.55 gears with weight distribution hitch. Done all the math and not overloaded... Even mindfull enough to weigh all my cargo as it goes in and took the trailer and truck to the scales. My concern is that we are going camping this weekend at a new spot with friends and there's one spot on the road that is downhill at a decent grade and has a hump in the middle that has a drop off the other side. I have concerns regarding clearance going down and up the hill due to the long wheel base and getting hung up. I understand there is no rule of thumb here... But any advice or words of caution etc. Would be greatly appreciated.

Not sure anyone here can help you unless you tell us exactly where this is and hopefully someone has been there, done that.Ron

AM's spotter idea is a good one..as is old biscuit's. I always carry a strap. Lanerd has a point...possibly we've been there if we knew where.

"My concern is that we are going camping this weekend..."At least you didn't ask us Friday afternoon three minutes before leaving.
