Help! New to fifth wheels but had TT with Hesley Arrow previously. I've read all the manuals that came with the hitch, read as many posts as I can find but still can't find my problem. I've had no problem hitching but unhitching is another story! I h...
Just changed from a TT with 1200lb tongue weight to a fifth w approx 4000 pin weight. Haven't gotten to the scale yet. I'm confused.... placard on truck door says tires rated at 2660lbs at 65psi for rear duallies. Michelin load rating says 2778 at 80...
Along the lines of what stupid thing have you done today. I know better than this.... I can't believe I forgot to close the black tank valve the last time I drained. Now I have a mess! A reminder to all on a semi permanent spot - CLOSE your valve!
Traveling Sunday in heavy freeway traffic, the motorhome ahead and to the right of me blew a tire causing him to swerve across the freeway and left a tire sized "welt" across my Jeeps front end. To be fair, I know nothing about how the other driver m...

I had a 2015 338RETS. It's a great trailer BUT there are some points to consider. Mine was 9700lbs empty leaving a whopping 1300lbs for cargo, water, etc. I pulled it with a Ram dually and a Hensley Arrow. Easy as pie to tow. IF you're not planning o...
Had a 2015 338RETS. Loaded Tongue weight was 1200 lbs and used a HA. Worked great but I decided to switch to a fifth wheel to get a larger CCC. When my 338 arrived, it weighed 9900 lbs empty. Left me with very little CCC. Very good camper otherwise.
