Wondering if this is anyone on the forum?... we're up here in the Black Hills at our property for the week, happen to see on the way back up the hill from Deadwood; at Steel Wheel Campground.
Did you bring a auto for the Cool Deadwood Nights event? Or enjoying riding around on motorcycles? Your 32ft. Dynaquest sure is sharp looking [emoji1303] Have a enjoyable safe time up here in the Hills.

I should get a sales commission from Dynamax.
We're at the 16th RV park so far on this trip, several more to go.
I have shown and given a tour of our DX3 in at least 12 of them. In Seattle now and 3 were walking around looking at it while I was checking in. Haven't given them the tour yet.
I will get a new one eventually for all the new bells & whistles but for now I am very pleased with my '14 DX3 RB

There was a DX3 at Mid Ohio this last weekend towing a stacker trailer at around 20,000lbs!

My 2015 DX3-37RB IS rated to tow 20,000 pounds. The tongue weight listed on the hitch is 3,000 pounds (which is 15% of 20,000). At last year's FROG Rally in Goshen, a gent with a newer model told me his DX3 was only rated to tow 10,000 pounds. I doubt Freightliner downgraded their chassis. Did Dynamax switch to a less capable/expensive hitch?
Before I bought my DX3, a Winnebago Journey I looked at claimed it had a 10,000-pound tow rating. That number had a "*" next to which I knew had some significance. Reading the fine print at the bottom of the spec sheet, Winnebago added that the TONGUE weight rating was only 500 pounds! Using the general guide that tongue weight should NOT exceed 15% of the load being towed, the TRUE tow rating was less than 4,000 pounds! Talk about playing fast and loose. I wonder how many buyers missed that and got stung when they wanted to tow something heavy?

I’ve never heard of a dx3 rated to tow 10k.

20,000+ Miles/22 States in 12 months and we've never passed another Force. We've seen a few DX3s including one this weekend in Glacier National Park West KOA.
I keep looking and i'm probably gonna break my air horn if I ever do pass another Force on the road!!

We leave for our next trip in a few weeks, 9/27. Headed to Disney from Ohio. I will keep an eye out so you have a chance to honk at another Force. I too have not seen another Force on the road, it would be pretty exciting.

I saw a brown and tan DX3 today near Morgantown WV. It was merging onto I79 south from I68 west, had a white enclosed trailer in tow. Anybody on here?

I saw a black & silver Force going N on Hwy 101 South of Cloverdale, OR around 3 pm. I think it was my friend that I parked next to a week ago.

I saw a Dynamax
Ok so I think I saw one Sunday about 1115. Looked like the silver DX3 color scheme. It was headed north on 77 I believe it was in VA and hauling a long white trailer that may have had a car in it.
Doubt you noticed the Forester headed south but we were the one missing one of the amber covers from the marker lights on top of cap. Dang thing blew off a mile from our house in central Ohio.

Sun was behind you so I couldn't tell for sure. The friend I thought it was had been staying in Newport. Where were you'll staying, can you recommend ? I'm back on the road continuing to head S on 101 in a couple days. Resuming our southerly trip from Waldport. I'm surprised how many RV parks have 'No Vacancies' after Labor Day

Jessie M. Honeyman Memorial State Park just south of Florence is nice, lots of sand dunes, a couple of miles from the ocean though. Harris Beach near Brookings is beautiful.

Was the smoke from the Chetco Bar fire a problem for you in Brookings?
