Good looking camper. Wish we had trees at our camp grounds here in west Texas.

Enjoy the new camping season

Was wondering how you're trips went so far? Were there any issues that you noticed with the tt? Only asking because we have yet to use our's for the first time and was hoping for some suggestions.

Haven't taken ours out of the winterizing yet. I'm getting the itch for it. Looking like the middle of April. This is the first time I've winterized so I'm hoping for the best. I'll keep my fingers and toes crossed. We're expecting 3-5 inches in the next 2 days.

We have done fine, only had one issue with the power tongue jack. Went to lower it and it just clicked like it was locked up, had power, tried using the manual crank it still wouldn't budge. Turned power off unplugged everything and it still stayed locked up, then it just started working after I left it alone.
Otherwise everything works great, tows well gets a little loose sometimes even with load distributor and sway control.

What do you mean when it gets loose? Do you have the anti-sway on your hitch as well? We do and i love it.

Well it's like the sway control isn't working well to me, the trailer feels like it is moving side to side.

I felt the same when I first got my trailer. I found that durning different times I would crank down more on the anti-sway and other time it was too stiff. It's something you'll figure out as you drive in different conditions how much tension you'll need.

Also never ever grease the anti-sway. Suppose to have friction, metal on metal.
