Thumbs up New Silverback

Hi we are from Grand Junction Co, have been rving for the past 12 years, have had two 5ers and one travel trailer, all small, we just purchased a 2009 Silverback GII 32 RL 5er, we are so excited but, not wanting to put it away for the winter, next year we will snowbird!

to the forum and congrats on the new 5'er.

I think you'll find people on here are friendly and willing to help with any problem. Sounds like you've been doing this awhile, so I'm sure people could use your advice as well.

Enjoy that new trailer and happy camping!

Greetings and welcome. Sadly I hate to be the bearer of bad news but you may not have enough truck for that fiver. My 34CKTS has a GVWR of 13,750 and routinely scales at 13,350 pounds with a pin weight of 3000 pounds. More than a 3/4 ton can comfortably handle. When you get it load it up and please do yourself a big favor and get it to the scales and get an accurate ready to camp weight.
