Will it do the job? Reminder: I'll be towing a 37' TT with a GVCR of 11000 lbs. According to the towing guides I'm seeing, it can handle over 13K lbs, but it doesn't specifically say anything about whether the brakes will work. Yes it will do the job very well. The brakes will be fine. Good choice( and this is coming from a Ford guy)Re: Kitchen Slide on Dutchmen 3100 BHSThe screen room is connected to the camper and it replaced the awning. In fact the vinyl roof of the screen room is in the awning track. If my wife likes the trailer we will adjust the outside living setup accordingly. The whole situation sucks because we put up the screen room last season and just got the site the way we wanted so I could actually relax this season. Such is life. Thanks for the replies everyone.Re: Kitchen Slide on Dutchmen 3100 BHSI have not seen the trailer yet in person, and my SIL is out of town and cell range for the week. I will know more this weekend. Once out, the slides would likely be out most of the season. Thanks for the reply.Re: Should I keep my old truck?I've been driving and working on Ford Trucks for nearly 30 years and have never had trouble finding replacement parts for any of them. Keep common parts on hand if it makes you feel better. I used to carry a spare cam sensor for '95 F250 with a 7.3 diesel.Kitchen Slide on Dutchmen 3100 BHSDue to a refrigerator fire in a '02 Mallard we are in the market for a new(to us)TT. My sister in law is looking to upgrade from her Dutchmen 3100BHS and we might pick it up from her. The problem is we have a permanent site with a one year old screen room and this model has a slide out kitchen that would encroach into the screen room. I was wondering if it had to be in the out position to utilize the kitchen.Re: HEY we need a sticky for our TT pics!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hanna1946 wrote: Looks like beautiful weather.
