    Anyone pulling a Bighorn with a 3/4 ton?

    The Maximum Loaded 5th Wheel Trailer Weight Rating for our F250 is 15,200# a F350 SRW is 15,600#, so not much difference. Our trailer shows to weigh 11,043# from the factory with a max weight of 14,000#,so I believe we are well in our limits. Believe me as a former truck driver with plenty of...

    Anyone pulling a Bighorn with a 3/4 ton?

    We have a 2012 f250 with airbags & own a BH 3010RE. I know it is a smaller Big Horn, but I am very comfortable & don't feel unsafe at all when traveling. I like the smoother ride of SRW vs DRW trucks, plus its easier when it comes to parking & finding places to get it washed when we are not...

    upgrading tires on a NT 22fbs

    I have upgraded tire from the stock Duros 205/75/14 c rated to maxxis radial st tires(same size), but the trailer has quite a bit of sway when towing. I know they make a few d rated 14" tires but, if I went to D rated tires in a 15" would the stronger sidewall help with the sway? I also would...

    analog to digital thermostat

    Is there a "plug and play" swap from a analog thermostat to a digital thermostat for a North Trail 22fbs? My concern is I see others posting about the fan only being single speed but, I would like to keep it dual speed. Are there units available without having to do a bunch of mods? I am capable...

    RV Park/Campground in the Houston/Galveston area

    A really good cheap eating place in Galveston is Shrimp N Stuff. Its not too difficult to find, but there is no room for an RV that I can remember. Its a place that most locals know about & not many tourists. Its located @ 3901 Avenue O @ the corner of 39th st. http://www.shrimpnstuff.com/

    RV Park/Campground in the Houston/Galveston area

    This is sort of a late reply but my wife's family lives in the Lamarque & Hitchcock area. When we go visit them, we like staying at Marina Bay Rv Resort in Kemah, Tx. It's in a nice area right by the Boardwalk. The park is clean & near all kind of restaurants & stores. The only bad thing is they...

    Hi, If you decide to change to 15" tires, please let me know how that turns out. We have a 22FBS & I am thinking of doing that as well.

    Replacing Duro tires on 22FBS

    Had 1 blow out on our last trip, so need a replacement, looking at the Maxxi brand tire, burt open to all suggestions. The question I have is sidewall performence, the trailer already has more sway than I would like, so I was curious if I should stay with a bias tire or go to a radial? Just...
