Is hwy 50, west of the parks, good road. We loved Capitol Reef and plan to come back next year. Get the apple pie at the Gifford House :). We also like Canyonlands. Worth a couple of daysRe: Canyonlands-Capitol Reef, Worth the trip?any recommendations for "shortish" hikes for someone with mildly limited mobility? ThanksRe: downsides(s) in moving from 36 to 42 ft toedtoes wrote: Are you unhappy with your current rig? Or was this just something that flashed in your eyes? If the latter, go take a few hundred that you would have put out on a new rig and change out the decor of your current one. Lots cheaper. HA! I've already put that argument forward to my better half.Re: downsides(s) in moving from 36 to 42 ftyeah, we realize that NFS and other state/fed campgrounds that will take a 42 ft. are pretty darn limited. This is a big consideration for use. (But check out the new NPS campground at Schoodic Point, Acadia NP)downsides(s) in moving from 36 to 42 ftWent to the RV show (always a bad idea) and found a 42 ft 5th wheel we really like. We now have a 36 ft 5th wheel. For those of you who have made a similar move, what have you found to be negative about the longer trailer? Thanks.Re: Tow car hookup by single person Bill.Satellite wrote: The type of tow bar and the type of base plate make no difference at all. The key is the tow vehicle. Can it be towed 4 down or are you going to need a tow dolly? What is your plan? 4 down and thanks for all the comments/helpful suggestions!Tow car hookup by single personI will be towing a vehicle and need to be able to easily (relatively) hook up the towed vehicle by myself. 1) Any recommendations for a particular tow bar brand? 2) Any hookup procedure recommendations? Thanks.SUVs that can be towedI need to buy, and then tow, a mid- to full-sized SUV. 1) Does anyone know what SUVs can be towed? 2) Any recommendations for a particular vehicle ThanksRe: stopping distance, disk vs drumseems to be a solid consensus on the disks being worth the money. Any recommendations on brand? Actuator? Will it work with existing brake controller from 2011 Ford King Ranch or do I have to install something on the dash? Thanks.stopping distance, disk vs drumI've seen a lot of anecdotal information about stopping distance improvements when switching from drum to disk. What I can't find is a rigorous test that compares pre- and post-switch stopping distances with the same truck/trailer combo. Does anyone have a link to such a site? Thanks.
