Your Pioneer Trailer looks identical to ours. We have a Heartland Trail Runner, it is 29 feet long with tongue extension and a bunk bed in the left corner. We love our trailer anyway, but haven't had it on the road much. How does yours travel behind your truck?

It pulls good. I'm using the Reese SC WDH. It has the pads that the bars run on for the built in sway control.

Nice, that looks like one awfully peaceful place!

That's in the Cherokee National Forest, part of the Smokey Mountains. It's kind of a local's hide out and it doesn't have any services or hook ups so the out of towners don't make it up there often. The spots like that are no less then 3/4 mile apart so our dogs don't both the neighbors.

Reese makes great hitches and I looked up online to see and read about your hitch. The hitch I got was from Husky and is called the "centreline" WD model. I use the same type of bar to get my WD bars flicked up by the A-Frame attachments. I see your SC Reese hitch uses a clamp on friction style control - neat!! Husky Centreline uses hydraulic control for sway, but both systems my bet would be about equal in the end. It sure pays to invest extra money for that sway control. The old system I had do not have sway control and two transports passed my trailer on either side on a busy hi way and I **** near lost my trailer! That was the scare of my life with my family and my dad all in board. So paying the extra 500 bucks up front for good sway control engineering in your WD hitch is so worth it. Thanks for your response

I'm originally from the Newport/Del Rio area of East TN so I know the area well. I miss it for sure! Less than 6 years to go to retire for the second time and we will be back there for good!

Geographically it is close to the Dragon but a person has to go to Vonore, TN to get up there.
