post pictures of your HTT

The folks in the Folding Trailer forum have started a fun topic, so I thought perhaps we could do the same. I'll start.



Our 2005 Starcraft Travelstar 21SSO, last year at the LaSalle-Peru KOA.

Hello Lanningjw...Looks like someone fastned the screws down to far on your moulding. It also looks like the moulding is seperating from the body...(or is that just my eyes)?
Did the dealer make the corrections for you? I would hope so!

I agree it looks bad. ITs new! We payed alot of $$$$$ for this HTT. It better get new when I come to p/u.

Congrats. An intelligent choice 😉

We are picking up our new Shamrock 19 (same as Roo) on May 7th. We loved the features, floorplan and decent reviews.

For the Equal-i-zer, got the 600/6000 model as well, best suited for this unit and we do not plan to ever have a bigger/heavier model. Got it from a US dealer, had it delivered to a friend in the Buffalo area and drove over to pick it up - as Canadian dealers sell it for close to twice the price.

I am installing it myself, have done the TV part - with the help of a truck repair shop to torque the 430 ft/lbs needed on the ball - will do the HTT part on pickup day. Will drive home and perform final adjustments after loaded properly.

Happy camping.

I called Equalizer and they advised to go with the 1000/10000. Said there was only a 1/4 inch diff in the bar size. What do you think?

Exact same thing here...except, I bought the JayCo 19H. (I know less about this stuff then you). How, and when did you sell your PUP? I have an "02 Rockwood Premier" that I have to sell (loaded). I'm in St Paul, newly retired, and rare'in to go. You speak of buying an "equalizer"...would the RV shop install one for me, or would it be advised to install myself?...Thanks!

I am gonna install the Equalizer myself. Its just a WDH not a rocket engine. I think we can install ourself. You can buy it from RVW, free shipping
I sold the mustang on Craigslist,

When posting photos please conform to the RV.Net maximum size of 640X480 pixels!!

You can install it yourself. Take your time and follow the directions. If you feel more comfortable, the dealer can do it for a fee. I believe RVW still has the best price shipped right to you. Don't forget a good brake controller as well, like a prodigy.

I think we have made a slight mistake by paying for the HTT before it has had it PDI. This has me concerned because we own it now. Dealer said the PDI will be done when we pick it up in a 4 weeks.
I was out at the dealer and noticed the following problems:

Congratulations Lanningjw! We bought our hybrid trailer that way - at a RV show in February. It was actually during a snow storm. We almost got stuck going home. Same thing, the dealer kept it until the snow melted. I think we picked ours up sometime in March. We camped in our driveway a couple nights, trying out the furnace, and then in April, we camped at a local campground. You're going to have a great camping season! Enjoy!

Lanningjw - Congrats!
Welcome to the fine world of HTT's. I see your in MN, looks like you really don't have a ton of snow...hope it melts soon!
Prodigy and equalizer-great combo, works wonderfully for us as well.

[4Jeeperz]

lanningjw,
We chose the 600/6000 Equalizer and Prodigy. We don't plan to upgrade to a heavier trailer so we selected the best match for our size. (Note: we had a very close call on a trip last week that I posted about. We were extremely impressed with the prodigy and equalizer's operation in an emergency situation) Got both from RVWholesalers, delivered to our door very reasonably.
Turn up the heat and get that trailer home soon!

Couldn't have picked better myself!;)
Happy Camping

What size Equalizer are you using? I called Egualizer and they advised the 1000/10000. Am getting the Prodigy brake control. The dealer is storing the camper for us until the snow melts and we can p/u.
We are very excited! We also sold our Mustang on CL. I have alot to learn about HTT.
