Re: Blue Ox Sway Pro Quetion
Wallaby I'm in the same situation as you. Call Blue Ox customer service they will exchange the hitch that comes in the package for the correct one you need. I'm my case I need a Class V hitch as my truck has the 21/2 hitch.

Re: 2015 Lance 2285 vs 2015 Outdoors RV 240 rks
Lots of difference between the two from ground up. The ORV much heavier with Buffy frame 15 inch wheels shock absorbers. Lance is more 1/2 ton towable. Fresh water capacity will be huge factor if you dry camp a lot. ORV built by same company as Arctic Fox Northwood MFG. Lance great trailer but like I said ones half ton towable and the other is borderline. I personally would check out the Arctic Fox line and the Snowriver line on the northwoodmfg website if towing is not an issue.

Re: Desert Willow in Hesperia CA?
Canyon RV park in Anaheim. Please stay away from the Hesperia choice. As mentioned it is way to far from Disney. Unless you have a reason to be near Hesperia.

Re: Arctic Fox 25Y
Thanks Pat I'm doing some research on which hitch setup to get. Lots of choices. Yea the 25y is great still having my doubts about the length. I really wanted to stay in the 27' range. We camp lots of forest service sites

Re: Arctic Fox 25Y
I currently own a 08 Toyota Tundra with a 5.7 liter motor. It's rated to tow upwards of 9000 lbs but the tounge weight and payload will not work towing this TT.

Arctic Fox 25Y
Looking to buy an AF 25 Y 2015 with a GVWR of 10,000 pounds and dry hitch weight of 800 lbs. would the new Dodge Ram 2500 turbo cummins diesel have any issues towing this trailer? If not what Dodge model would you suggest. I'm looking to buy this truck soon then the TT to follow just want to make sure I have plenty of truck to tow this TT fully loaded on long trips throughout the U.S. Thanks for the help

Re: Nash or Lance
Yes you are right my mistake. What I meant was Lance is a lightweight designed to be towed with 1/2 ton and more appealing in that respect. North woods MFG is built with a stronger heavier duty frame with shock absorbers,and also 15 inch wheels. Lance has lighter not as strong frame and smaller whelels. Not sure about shocks or not. If I were going to go off road my choice would be Northwoods. Also With bigger wheels comes a stronger and beefier axle. Lance is a great trailer but hard to compare. To the Lance is my point 2 different builds and different era.

Re: Nash or Lance
I'm sure if you had the choice it would be a flush slide out floor. I really liked the Lance but there fresh water capacity in comparison to Nash is not adequate. For someone that camps away from full hookups. As mentioned these trailers compared to one another is not a equal comparison I see Lance as an Entry level light weight model. Nash a more bullet proof heavyweight built much differently.

Re: Nash or Lance
Northwoods MFG has proven to be an industry leader. I like the Lance also but this is not a valid comparison. Nash fresh water capacity and flush slide outs to name a few. Lance frame does not allow slider to be flush with floor deal breaker.
