Show us what you tow.

Bought this in 2021. Pulled it over a few big passes. Wouldn’t want to go any bigger.

 

Every once in awhile I get to steal the boss's jet.

 

Specs?

 

Pull this 5 to 6 times a year... 2018 Crossroads Sunset Trail Super Lite SS210FK... 5500 lbs

 

As of today: InTech Flyer Explore

 

Pretty light load, 850 lbs plus trailer weight. Didn’t like the hills still however.

 

Haven't been in this thread for awhile, but someone liked one of my old photos so I better add one of my latest...

 

Good Lord, what's your combined weight?

 

My hot dog trailer

 

Less that the GCVWR of 11,210/11,290. Can't recall which rating mine is. Was prolly right around 10K.

My normal load is actually about 1000 pounds more than the travel trailer, which puts me right about max GCVWR. I've hit the scales in Oregon with the below when heading to the dunes. That TT is really light compared to the SxS, ATV, and car trailer. It just LOOKS worse with the TT behind the truck.

 

Leaf spring on the TT actually snapped on the way home. Thankfully it broke pulling into a gas station. Who knows what coulda happened if it was on the freeway. FYI, not my TT. My buddy towed all the ATVs/SxSs out on his big trailer behind his truck, I towed his TT for him so we wouldn't need a 3rd vehicle.

 

What year is the Jayflight? Mine is a 2022 174bh with combined weight of 9300lbs(Taco 5660lbs and camper 3640lbs)

 

Yikes!

 

I think it's about 5 years old, but don't really know. not mine. Just looked up 2017 and the dry weight is 2880, which matches his. The new 2023 is 3145. He kept the water to a minimum to help save weight, and it was only a 2 night stay.

 

And how far over your GVWR are you?

 

So, SOO very far.

 

I really like that little trailer.

 

My wife and I took it out for a drive yesterday. First order of business was to set my brake controller. I went to one of our school’s parking lots and did a few laps. By the time I was done adjusting the controller I had a crowd of neighbors wanting a tour. I dropped the ramp door, pulled out the kitchen and dropped the bed down in less than 3 minutes. And then put it all away in the same amount of time. Spent the next hour talking to the neighbors, everyone walked away wanting one of their own. I absolutely love this thing and it tows great behind the Tacoma.

 

I'm curious what all you needed to do to adjust your brake controller? I adjust mine on the two blocks leaving my cul-de-sac for whatever weight/road conditions I have. Takes about 6 seconds? Maybe playing with brake boost?

 

How do you like this trailer?
