    Thanks gentlemen! Been settled in and relaxing since Monday evening. Had an issue with the camper’s water pump when I first setup, but it magically started working Monday night. Got a little sunburnt yesterday out fishing in the canoe, but it’s all good.

    She towed nice btw. Could tell it was back there when we hit hills, but that was expected. I’ve got it and the truck loaded up a bit more than usual. Even have a nice pile of wood in the bed. Got 11.6 MPG on the way here.

    Not towing related, but figured I’d throw this in for anyone interested.

    I did my usual Walmart run before camping and saw this cooler. I’ve been watching prices of the RTIC, Pelican, etc, but I’m too cheap to spend that much on a cooler. This one was $97 and it’s held ice all week with people going in and out of it frequently. And it’s made in the USA.

    Just got back home. Had to drive through a nasty thunderstorm on the way back. Towing was fine, seeing the road was a challenge.

    Here’s a few pics of my hook up prior to leaving if anyone is interested.
    All measurements from center of hub:
    Pre-hookup; 24” rear, 22” front

    Post hookup; 23” rear, 22” front

    Here’s my hitch setup:

    Oh and BTW - that Walmart cooler still has ice in it.
