If you get a campion your camping neighbors will hate you, VERY noisey. The nice thing about LP is the fuel won't go bad after setting for along period of time. Which can be a big plus. My first generator was a China knock off Honda, looked good on paper (cost less). My advice is buy a Honda...

No experience with an Anderson. If I was going back to a tongue pull trailer I would use the Equal-i-er which provides weight distribution and sway control. Made in Provo Ut. Had this set up on my last tongue pull and loved it. Almost as good as a 5th wheel.

I leave the tv in the 5th wheel. Two winters, hasn't been a problem. Yet.

I also level side to side first. But with the front of the 5th wheel slightly lower than level. I than put the back stabilizer jacks down and level the 5th wheel with the front jacks. Takes the weight off the tires makes thing a little less wiggly. (Yes I know stabilizer jack are not...

Ford F100 is a pretty old truck, So, I would expect very poor handling when compared with a Newer truck.

I would use a chain saw, and kill two birds with one stone, so to speak.

Dido.

Hopefully everything will be as promised.

Shouldn't have any problems. I'm sure someone using the same towing setup on the form.

What kind of a truck are using to pull the 5th wheel with, Long Bed or Short Bed, Chevy, Ford, Dodge?

JMO, but I don't think you will get much of a charge from the TV. But, you can us the TV battery to run the slides in and out.

My last dealer de-winterizing experience was very similar. I now do my own winterizing and de-winterizing. It's easy takes less than 15 mins and two bottles of RV anti freeze. No more Larry, Moe and Curly for me.

It's a seven year old brake control, buy a new one. Just my opinion.

She is a little cutie patootie.

But with a gasser I wouldn't be very happy.

The ball on your truck should be the same height, or slightly higer, as the tongue on your leveled trailer.

I have the same towing experience, only my's a Duramax, go diesel.

The nice thing about an electric awning, its easy to extend and retract. I do have a shade cloth that rolls up in the electric awning. Haven't had any problems to date.

I believe all of these test when done without a 5th wheel attached. I wonder how the addition of the trailer effects the wind flow in the truck bed. I use the V shaped tail gate cause I'm lazy.

We do the drive from Pocatello, Id to Missoula, Mt twice a year. It's a very easy drive. If you do go this way stop at the School House in Dell, Mt for Breakfast, Lunch or Dinner. Fabulous food.

II has been a long time since I traveled that road, and Yes their are a few switchbacks and steep grades. But, it's a very pretty drive. Shouldn't be a problem if you can take your time.

I just bought a used GMC duramax, 2006 with 95000 miles. Payed $25,0000 about 35% of a new one. I'm happy. But your right they do want a lot for a new or used truck.

I feel your pain, would love, love, love, to have 80 to 100 gals of fresh water on board.

Never thought about the weight of my batteries and just assumed that the front compartment would carry the weight. Guess what I'll be looking at tomorrow.

I've done this on more than one occasion. Works for me when the temps are 90 to 100 degrees.

Me, Dw, 5 dogs and 100 gals of diesel= 7960 lbs. Thank you GM. Sent from my SM-T217S using Tapatalk

I would start by checking the fuse, and power supply.

Don't worry about chains, you won't need them.

6, winter some where warmer.

I have a Xantrex, it works. I can watch TV in the evening, run a small fan all night and heat up a cup of coffee microwave in the morning. I will say that the microwave won't do much more than heat a cup of coffee off the inverter. I do have to reduce the charging input on the inverter by...

I think I would have left the fresh water holding tank full, less likely to freeze. But, you are in a sticky wicket.

And McDonalds sells the most hamburgers, just not the best hamburger.

If your going to tow, diesel the way to go. Ford make a good diesel, you'll be happy. (Not as happy as a Chevy owner, but still happy. LOL)

Good advice, I have some "weird friend and relative" who would benefit from this.

So the Chevy needed a little help, which the Ford was able to provide.

Here is a pic and a list of the things attached to bumper/sewer hose holder. 1 Yamaha 3000 watt generator, 2 X-pins (portable dog crate) and a cart. The generator has two stingers welded to the bumper. The X-pin holder is clamped on like the 2 inch receiver used for the bike racks. I check...

I understand, nobody likes a arrogant salesman.

Speaking from the sales side, give him a week. And make sure you are getting a good hitch. He needs your sale more than you need his trailer. Good luck.
