Re: Tent pulling out of track
It's a Dutchmen, and very similar to all the other hybrids from 2001.

Tent pulling out of track
One of the tents in our hybrid is partly pulling out of the vertical track, towards the bottom. This is a 2001 Zephyr with the old system where you have to pull the tent over the door. Does anyone know how we can secure this so it won't rain in?

Re: Towing in the Rocky Mountains
Thank you! The only code that is on that sticker and that is on the list as well is GT4, Axle Rear 3.73. Does this help?

Re: Towing in the Rocky Mountains
Dan, It is a 2001, 4x4, V8. I don't know where to find info on the engine. All I see on the sticker is: GAWR FRT 3600 lbs, GAWR RR 4000 lbs. Does this give the rear end ratio? I don't know what a payload capacity is, or how to find out, sorry.

Towing in the Rocky Mountains
We are looking for a new trailer, as our current one had a "little" accident. We will be towing with our Chevy Tahoe which has a GVWR of 6900 lbs. I am very cautious about the weight we want to pull; we always stayed way under, but for our last trailer we would like some more space and comfort (walkaround bed etc.). How much weight could our new trailer be, so we are safe? We live in Colorado and will virtually always need to cross the Continental Divide. I have heard that I should subtract about 25% of the GVWR of the car. Do you agree?
