Nice new 5th wheel.
One thing I would say is make sure you maintain the proper tire pressure all the time. A 5th that big will heat up under inflated tires quickly.
I always checked mine before, during and at the end of my trip.
No one wants a blowout on a trip.
What type of tires did they put on it?
What load rating?
What max psi?

You're about to have the best time of your life. We have had our 320RS for 14 months now, and basically are "quarter-timers" - spending at least one week out of each month in it. This month...we're taking a 10-day vacation in addition to the 7 days...so for the month of May it'll be half-time.

Since getting it, we've stayed 119 nights in it (82 last year and 37 so far this year) and have loved every night.

Iggy - the dry weight is about 11,000 and I'm not sure what tire they're using currently, but I can tell you mine have Load Rating E and PSI of 80 pounds.

Nice!
I take delivery of my new 2014 Puma 30RKSS on June 4th. We are seasonal campers and keep it in one location, it works for us. Many years ago we owned a Palomino pop-up, the kids loved camping until they became Boy Scouts, seems camping once a month was enough for them, they didn't want to do it all summer long. Now they are jealous and want their own trailers. Have fun in 2013 everybody and stay safe!

Smile Looks great!! & Like the truck too.

Very nice looking rig. We pick up our 320 RS on Thursday. We have a similar Red Ram 2500, so we may look like twins out there. Happy trails.
