Rockwood MiniLite 2306

We've only had our trailer for a month but love it. Any cautionary notes out there for this model the 2011 2306? Tows well behind our Pathfinder.

Just picked up our 2012 MiniLite 2306 yesterday, can't wait to hit the road. Using a 2004 Trailbazer with 3 speed automatic, any suggestion of the best gear to use? Using D seemed to use passing gear alot?

Looks good!!

We also have had ours just over a month =] and so far, so good!!

I am curious about how your Pathfinder is doing though. We had one many years ago and had to replace the transmission just after the warranty had expired; my brother also has a 2006 Pathfinder and his engine blew-up 2 months ago and he spent 10k replacing it (ouch).
I might add that none of this was due to towing.

Our Pathfinder ha 77,000 on it. I plan to bypass the stock tranny cooler and add an aftermarket unit, my research has told me that this is the cure for the Nissan transmission fault. Just spent the weekend in Capitol Reef, Utah. Absolutely stunning.

Yes it has the tow package and is rated for 6000lbs. Our Rockwood leaves me with about a 1200 lb cushion

Yes, that is the key to the NIssan Tranny problem which is adding an aftermarket tranny oil cooler. Labzy's Pathfinder has 66,000 miles on it at the time, and happened after about 4 days driving through the Smoky Mountains.
