I hate to say it but my Gateway looks just like that under there. It seems that there is no quality control on any of these campers anymore. :(

Mine has water in it every time I unroll it. I guess it gets in there when raining but can't get back out.

My 15 Gateway wheels where stamped 110psi. Back in 15, the day I got it home from the dealer I got a set of G rated Sailun commercial tires and they have been great.

I'm not sure about your bighorn but on my Gateway both AC units are connected to the same vent system. If either unit is running air comes out of all vents. It does seem like more air flow comes out of the vents closest to the unit that is running but I would expect that. That being said if my...

Re: New owner big country 3965dss Sure sounds like it's blown. The question now is why?

I wish they had done the same on mine but no such luck. I would love to get rid of the carpet in the bunk room.

If it came with a ladder you can walk on the roof.

Both mine are the same. The problem is that the manufacturer is in to big of a hurry to install it correctly and they could care less if it's safe.:p

Many, Many people tow heavy Travel Trailers with the F150 3.5 EcoBoost trucks. If ordered with the towing/payload packages and the right gears you would be very happy with one as a tow vehicle and daily driver. My Brother tows a 8000lb TT with his 2016 F150 with the 2.7 EcoBoost and 3.73 gears...

Nice mods. Man I sure wish my storage compartment was that organized.;)

I often wonder the same thing. :p I don't drive my truck very far each day so it sometimes takes up to 3 days for a regen to finish. It kills my average millage. :(

This does not sound like a truck problem, it sounds like a hitch problem. I don't believe the slider hitch was installed/setup correctly.

X3, Get a newer F150 with the 2.7 Ecoboost and a tow package. You would then have plenty of power (even if you got a bit larger Trailer) and great gas mileage as a daily driver.

They were easy to remove and really give you a lot more counter space.

If you run across a small gas range with a "retro" look, let me know. We have remodeled our interior and my wife thinks a range with the retro look would look perfect.

Sounds like you will be right at or over your GCWR, You better take it to a scale, loaded for camping, and see what the whole rig really weighs.

My Wife has talked about this same idea. It would be awesome if we could make a real oven fit.

What's the gvwr on that North Trail? Also what is the year and rating on your 1500? At almost 40' long I bet it's to much for a 1/2 ton truck depending on how it was optioned from the factory.

Looks like Bones beat me to it. Let me know if I can get any other measurements or pictures for you.

Most of the higher end WDHs have anti sway built into their design and don't require the adjustable add-on friction type bars. Take a look at en Equalizer brand hitch online. The website will explain how it works, and I can tell you they work very well.

No but I can get them for you tonight.

You will have to play it by ear, if it looks like a very un-level spot it may be easier on you to remove the spring bars first. Friction type sway bars are useless anyway so it doesn't really matter how tight you have them. ;)

My 15 Gateway has drawers in the steps. I wonder if you could order the drawers for a 15 and make them work for you?

Not sure if your 17 Gateway is the same as my 15 but the converter on mine is behind the breaker/fuse panel in the kitchen not in the basement.

I just had the same thing happen to my Gateway. The whole rear seam came loose almost all the way down. I had to pull it all apart replace some rotten wood and put it all back together. The original screws where so short that they pulled right out and let water in there. I used screws that were...

Agreed, put some soft white LEDs in there and you probably won't need the shield anymore.

That's a great mod, you are going to love your Morryde steps.

That sounds like an awesome idea. What is invloved in re-keying the the baggage doors?

I have the Morryde Step above steps and love them. Much safer than the folding steps it came with.

The front black and front grey tank are further forward so just to test you could fill those.

I've towed with the fresh tank full several times. It doesn't really make any difference because the the tank is centered up on the front axle so the pin weight doesn't change much at all.

Yeah I think moving the axles would be a better solution because adding more weight will just put more stress on the whole rig.

I may be able to rig something up to video it but it will be a few months before my next trip. I'm fully loaded but about a week at a time is our longest trip so we are never real heavy. This issue was so bad with the dually I would have to slow down to 30 mph on several bridges between...

They did not offer to pay but my tire guy didn't charge me anything to remount/balance. I didn't file any complaint, what is the process?

Hey Bones, I had the same issue with my rig back when I had my dually. When I fist got my 3650BH I used my old F250 to haul it. It was perfect, very smooth over transitions. Then I got the dually, the ride was awful and transitions would jar your teeth out, just like your video. A few months...

I just received the replacement wheel from Tredit last night. Only took them about a week to get this to me. I'll take it next week to get it mounted and balanced.

The fuse for the power jack on my pioneer wasn't under a cover on the jack. It was on the wire under the cover for the battery box. Take a look are the wire from the jack where it hooks to the battery and see if there is an inline fuse.

You're right, they don't make one narrow enough for the rear door so I had to modify it. I took it apart, cut it to fit, and welded/riveted it back together. Worked like a charm and you can't even tell it was modified. ;)

I wonder how we could tell if it's already fixed?

I have a 17 F350 pulling 15k with a Curt Q20 and ford puck system and mine doesn't do that at all so I don't think it's the brake controller or the truck either. Something is going on with that hitch.
