How does that monster tow?
Had to look that van up. There are only a couple in town. Nissan's version of an American full size van. Rated to tow from 2000-9400#!

I averaged about 7mpg over 500km, and that’s not slowing below 100km/h even on the biggest hills. So, I could probably do a little better if I let my heavy foot off once in a while.

Just picked up our trailer a few weeks ago. Big upgrade from our Salem Cruise Lite 180BH! Can't wait to take it out on its maiden voyage.

Very nice, I was looking up some of the Arctic Wolfs in the fall. But the model I was looking at had the a/c RIGHT ABOVE the top bunk. Other wise it would have been perfect.

Finally got a pic after swapping the WDH to an Andersen. Happy with the results!

Haven't posted here in a while. Same trailer, different truck. We started with a '11 F150 EcoBoost having 1529 payload and with a growing family (4 to 5 and those kids eat a lot!!!) decided to get rid of it and step up to a '16 F250 6.2 with 2766 payload. I love the way the new truck handles the trailer and the nearly bulletproof engine but do miss the grunt of the EcoBoost. Either way, both trucks get about the same MPG and the F250 can still maintain 60+ mph uphill....albeit in 3rd gear. Anyways, we towed the trailer 4200 miles with the F150 and 1400 miles with the F250. July 3 we leave for a 1100 mile round trip to Glacier National Park. Can't wait to hit the open road!
