Wouldn't want to try it with your F150. It's a big (long) camper, and as previously mentioned, the storage is mainly toward the front of this unit so the tongue will get pretty heavy when you're ready to camp. I think the fresh water tank is also ahead of the axles which won't help if you're towing with water in the tank. We now have a Prime Time Crusader 335BHS 5er, 3000lbs plus heavier (empty) and about four feet longer but tows much, much better.Re: 2013 FR Crusader 335bhs pricing,could I be paying to much?We bought a 335BHS last month, show price was $34,999 - we were out the door a little over $38k with tax, title, plates, delivery. Love the layout, just waiting for the weather to improve so we can actually use it!!!Re: Who parks their RV at home or do you pay for storage?Storage, 10 minutes away - paved lot with security fence, lighting, etc. at $1.00/foot a month. Giant lot at an old factory that used to make trusses for homes, also has inside storage at $2.50/foot (if I remember correctly.Re: 2013 FR Crusader 335bhs pricing,could I be paying to much?PM sent....Re: Voltage and their "V Series"Thanks G, I'd appreciate the pictures of the inside closed up. We're on a corner lot with a side entry garage, only about 24 feet from garage door to sidewalk, so being able to load up in the street without impeding traffic with the slides open would be nice. Which hitch do you have? Is a slider necessary with the front cap profile? Still not sold on having a generator, don't really see us doing any dry camping and it's an expensive (and heavy) option for something we probably won't need - any opinions? Cheers!Re: Voltage and their "V Series"Not to hijack the OP's topic, but the V-series is on my short list to purchase this spring. I posted on another thread that I'm looking for a toy hauler to haul fishing kayaks and bikes (no quads or anything heavy). I'm hoping to see a V3005 or maybe a V3305 this weekend... One thing I'm concerned about is access throughout the unit with slides closed. We live on a corner lot in a sub, and much like the picture posted above, we'll need to load/unload in the street as our driveway isn't long enough to back into. Is there any access to the refer/storage with the kitchen slide closed in the 3105/3305, or does the slide need to be opened? Any real world weights on the 3105/3305? My TV is a 2011 F350 crew cab diesel FX4, payload per sticker is 3500lbs. I really don't see us needing the generator, which would save us on pin weight and $$. Any other input would be greatly appreciated. Like I said, hoping to see one in person this weekend but I like to hear 'real world' opinions as well. Cheers!
