Re: Buying first RV for TALL family
We recently switched from a bunkhouse to a Cyclone toy hauler because our kids have out grown the bunks. The bunks in hauler portion are queen width but king length. I highly doubt we will ever use the hauler portion to haul anything, just liked the floor plan, high ceilings and larger beds. Whatever you buy, it will be some of the best money you spend for your family. Best of luck.447Views0likes0CommentsRe: 3.73 vs. 4.30 AXLE RATIO

Having never owned a DRW, I was shocked how much better the f450 handles a trailer. Love the 4.30's except for when I look at the avg miles per gallon...yikes. The newer 350-3500's would have done the same thing as the 450. I just wish people would read what you said about being shocked at how much better it is to tow long and heavy with a dually. I was in the market for an f350 but came across a deal I couldn't turn down on an f450.951Views0likes0CommentsRe: 3.73 vs. 4.30 AXLE RATIO

In the process of ordering a 4100 King. Also, want to switch to the B&W Companion. The GVWR on the 4100 king is 18,000 and the rating on the hitch is 18,000. Not the sharpest knife in the drawer but it appears this combo will work. Concern the ratings are equal and not higher on the hitch? Anyone use this combo? Thanks for your time.2.9KViews0likes11CommentsJT Strongarms on 6 point hydraulic w/ auto-level???
Just sold our bunkhouse 5th wheel which had JT Strongarms on it. In my opinion the Strongarms were the best add on we did. Looking to upgrade to a Heartland Cyclone toy hauler (most likely 4100 king) and will order with the 6 point hydraulic auto level. My question is are Strongarms needed with a 6 point hydraulic system. Thanks.3.5KViews0likes7Comments
