Hey Bill,

Given the 3008w's high tongue weight, my 1/2 ton struggles a bit to support the load. That's using a properly configured WDH and a modestly loaded box.

Don't get me wrong, I love my...

Landing gear up or down for winter?

Hiya,

As I finish my winterization I'm wondering if the trailer would be better supported with less support for the coming snow season.

Any thoughts on this? We average over 100 inches of snow...

70 to 75mph on tires that are just rated to 65? Hmm, I tow around 60, better for milage and safer if one of those cheap Chinese tires decides to fail.

The Genesis 3 that I originally posted about has been excellent. It's on almost all the time since I'm linked to satellite and enjoy the music. Nice piece of hardware.

Hey Doug,

Enjoy it up there. Just got back from a week at Fish Creek Ponds and it was great. We were a good 10 degrees cooler than the surrounding areas. Enjoy... In spite of the tent thing. ;-)

I hunted around for schematics for the Forest River products a while ago and came up empty handed. But, I'd sure like to see some pictures of your solar and custom battery install.

Are you heating your water with propane or electric? I only ask because I take a pretty hefty shower and I have yet to run my hot water tank to cold while burning gas.

Thanks for the thoughts. All of the V type Forest River Tt's seem to be putting the hitch on the bottom of the frame tubes. Not sure why that is, but we had to work with it.
