26RLWS reviews

My wife and I really like the layout on model 26RLWS. Since it is a new model has anyone purchased one, and are you happy with it?
I have a Survayor SV 264 and would like to get a trailer with two chairs.

I have a 2011 Ford F150 5.0 3.73 gear and don't have any problem pulling my trailer. I saw a lot of different uvw ranging form 5680 to 6090. My truck is rated for 9400 lbs but I don't want to be near that max. Is anyone pulling the 26RLWS with a simular setup?


Thanks for info

I don't have one, but I did look at the spec. Be aware that the CCC is listed at 1025 lb and the actual trailer will be less, maybe the 800 - 900 lb range. It appears that Rockwood/Flagstaff are only using 3000 lb axles which limit the CCC.

Your truck wouldn't have any issues towing that camper with a GVWR around 6700 lbs with a good W/D with intregrated sway control.

We have a Flagstaff 26WRB that we towed last year with our F-150 EB. Since traded up to an F-250 for sway stability and option to eventually go with a 5th wheel. You should be fine, but as previously mentioned, insure you have a good four-point hitch setup...
