We bought our North Trail 21 FBS a year ago with the intention of taking a road trip from Texas to Alaska! Before taking that on, we have made several trips ... starting short, to work out the "bugs", then a good long trip ... and now we are on our way. I am keeping up a travel journal with...

Thank you so much ... your post is VERY helpful ... now I am more excited then ever! We still haven't been able to see it or take possession. It seems with the bad weather and the price of gas ... finding a driver to bring it down from the factory has been an issue ... they are hoping now to...

The Tahoe has the trailering package and rear axle with 4.1 ratio ... we have the vortex 5300 V8 engine and auto trans with tow haul mode. We have 16" tires and load leveling shock absorbers ... I'm thinking we're good to go :-) We will check out having a test tow of the trailer ... going...

We bought our Tahoe in 2003 specifically for towing our 19 ft travel trailer and have been all over Colorado, from CA to VA Beach, through West VA, all up the west coast, through the sierras, across the deserts, all over TX, the gulf coast, through parts of AK, AL and LA ... The gear shift has a...

Yes, we bought the Tahoe for towing our 19 ft Aljo ... in fact the gear shift lever has a button on the end to egage it for towing ... I'll have to ask my husband about the weight distributing hitch ... I know we use an anti-sway bar and brake controller. Thanks so much for your input.

Bret, Sandie and Sara the Terror ... Thank you for putting my mind at ease about the glass. Seems you three travel quite a bit ... as do we ... We should be taking possession of our new NT 22 FBS sometime this week. We are upgrading from a 19 ft. Aljo which we have had for 10 years. This...

Thank you so much for this advice ... love your "handle" ...

Thanks so much for your reply ... and it made me laugh ... no off road event :) ... Happy trails!

Thanks for your reply ... that is our thought too ... and we have a big trip planned for the summer, figure we'll iron out any issues at that time ... should be taking possession sometime this week :o

Thanks Jim ... I was delighted to find this site ... and it sure confirmed our decision about the North Trail 22FBS ... but still have those couple of questions ... I just love that there is a place like this to talk with other owners.

Prospective North Trail Buyer ... What is the standard factory warranty? North Trail 22FBS Do you find it necessary to purchase the 5 year extended warranty?

Anyone out there have experience towing this size travel trailer with the Chevy Tahoe?

First, I am wondering about the glass shower doors and glass in the cupboard doors. We've been traveling for the past 10 years with our little 19 ft. Aljo ... no glass ... we sometimes end up on dirt or gravel roads ... anyone have any problems with breakage? You know, pots crashing through...
