Re: Help deciding on new tow vehicle
The only reason I thought about a suv is the 3rd row seating. Well have a car seat and 2 70 lb dogs, not not sure everyone will fit in the rear of a crew cab. I never thought about a cap for the truck. Most of the newer suvs seem to top out around 8000lbs which seems to be cutting it close230Views0likes0CommentsHelp deciding on new tow vehicle
The wife and I are considering looking for a new tow vehicle to haul our Keystone Bullet 308bhs (6100lbs dry) We have been towing it with my 2007 F150 with 5.4 V8 and towing package, but are interested in possibly a SUV since we have a new baby that will accompanying us, and the 3rd row seats sound nice. Short of older 2000's suburbans and excursions, are there any other newer model SUVs that can safely tow it? I fear we may be stuck looking for a 3/4 or larger truck, but would rather have the extra seating if possible. Its confusing reading everyones thoughts on different motors being junk...yada yada, so any concrete advice is appreciated :)3.2KViews0likes23CommentsMoving on up!

Im so excited..it has eveyrthing we wanted and enough room to grow with our family! Anyone have any experience with the Keystone brand?1.3KViews0likes5CommentsRefridgerator issue
We have a Jayco 19XUD and before our last trip I noticed the battery was dead as it had not been plugged in while in storage :( I brought the camper home and plugged the camper in for a couple days before we left. We precooled the fridge for our trip. I noticed once we hit the road the fridge says its not getting any juice while plugged into my trucks hitch, but will only cool off propane. Any advice? Would a bad battery not allow it to work off the trucks power?1.3KViews0likes10Comments
