New Cardinal

Sitting here at rv world of buford GA. They finishing the install of my hitch, we've done the orientation on the cardinal. Just waiting to hook to it and go home. Its pouring rain here so we wont be going straight to the lake today. What a shame!

Congratulations on getting the camper. Sorry the weather didn't permit its immediate use, how disappointing! Which hitch did you decide upon?

Happy camping!

I went with the reese pro series 20k hitch. I ended up making the dealer throw it in on the deal. They said they would put the 15k in if I bought the camper. But the camper weighed to much and so they had to pit the bigger one in.

I had to drive it home with the stock mirrors, but I've got some towing mirrors on the way from california. When I got home I had the camper at a 90 degree radius and didn't even have to slide the hitch.

So we can't wait until we get to take her out in two weeks. Looking forward to goof to unicoi springs up in Helen GA.
