Got the trailer home tonight. A few observations:
- It has the 4-link EZ WDH and sway control. As I pulled out onto the highway, My van wanted to pull to the right. i had to hold the wheel a bit left to go straight. It eventually cleared up. The trailer pulls quite stable and smooth.
- The hitch is LOUD! Creaky, moaning, groaning... Very annoying!
-I hate the 14 inch wheels. The tires are new carlisles, which are not my choice of tire, but won't worry about it this late in the season. However, I want to change to 15 inch wheels with Maxxis tires next season.
-On the way home, the skies opened up and we were in a freaking Michigan monsoon! Cars were pulled over. Hard to see at all. Flash flood warnings. Some freeways became lakes with fully submerged cars. It poured hard the whole ride home. Had to back into my driveway basically blind at night with my wife and kid barking directions at me in the downpour. Couldn't hear them. Couldn't see squat. All the corrections I had to make musta woke the neighbors with that creaking, crunching hitch!
It's in the yard. I used the monsoon opportunity to do another leak check. All corners and joints were bone dry.
