Well, it was. But after losing one antler on I-95 and the other near Disney, it's down to being a nasty pimple!

This was our rig in 2011 with our F250, Cougar High Country 321RES, and a double atv rack in the bed.




This was our F350 and the Road Warrior 30C that we just sold. Will have pics of the new 395AMP in tow in a couple of months when it lands at the dealer.

From this past summer. Scaled her to see how it was. Legal on all axles.
Have since leveled the trailer out, no longer nose high.

Was close to it's 16k GVWR with the two ATV's in the garage. I can't wait to see how much the new XLR 395AMP will weigh! I'm thinking it's going to be over 15k empty...

New Tow Rig

So, after riding in a friends 2014 Silverado I got the itch for a new truck. After seven great years with the Avalanche (I miss that truck, it doesn't help me that I sold it to a guy at work so I see it every day) I upgraded to a 2014 Silverado. It is amazing what the new 5.3L and 6 speed tranny do to improve the towing experience (9,500 lb tow capacity). I wish I had had this truck when we went out to Yellowstone, I would have been passing the semi's instead of them blowing by me.

A 2011 Rockwood Ultralite 2901SS, they longer make that particular floor plan which is sad because we love it. It is about the same size but a couple hundred pounds lighter than your 2905ss.

The last pic of our rig just before backing it into the barn for storage last fall.
-13 degrees F this morning in Michigan, and a 3' pile of snow in front of the barn door, so no trips planned for the near future

Beautiful rig. We're in Ada and so I share your pain. -10 here this morning. 14 more days until we get out of here and head for Florida. Want to come along?
