    This aint the heaviest load ive had but i use my 4 bangers as a scrap wagon. If you know how to stack they can be more profitable than the bigger trucks.

    Not towing but loaded both of em so heavy they're riding on the frames. The silver ones been to the scrap yards like 10 times now and hasnt even hit 1k on the odometer. Hopefully the composite beds can withstand this type of abuse. If it does im really starting to like it. image.jpg

    It's a great camper you have and I nice set up. I tow a similar camper, same weight with my 2013, Can I make one suggestion that will make towing 10 times easier and less stressful. Add a set of Firestone Ride Rite air bags with the on board compressor, (around $350 in parts), kit is very easy to install. What a big difference in towing. Good luck and happy camping

    I thought this might be a good place to ask. Has anyone mounted a tv in their travel trailer? I'm thinking about putting one in our jayco 195rb. I've done it countless times with standard construction but this lightweight trailer has me concerned.

    Just a heads up. If you are thinking about adding a solar panel to your setup, SolarBlvd has their 120w flexible panel on sale for $119, normally $276. They are light weight and less susceptible to damage then hard crystalline panels.

    Solar Cynergy 120 Watt 12 Volt semi-flexible solar panel has an impermeable lamination coats the entire module, allowing it to contour and flex against curved areas, eliminating any need for custom mounts. The panel can be affixed by adhesive stick or glue mounting ease of installation. The thin, lightweight module can also be affixed to or sewn into canvas, including bimini tops.

    Ideal for RV boat or tight spaces or crowded areas that are typically off limits for traditional glass and aluminum models. Suitable for marine use: the laminate coating on the exterior of the panel makes it impervious to saltwater splashing, rain, and other weather elements. Completely waterproof Junction box. sealed and waterproof junction box makes it waterproof for rain splashing. Light weight 82 % lighter than aluminum glass solar modules Durable surface is less than 1/8" / 2.5mm thick Quick Connectors: 1.4 meters of flex fitted with S-S connectors for quick and easy set up. 20 year limited warranty. Grommets included.

    I have tried a few tv's over the years in light weight rv's without good luck. The units I have had bad luck with were the ones with the integrated DVD players. Seemed like the perfect rv tv as you can use it for just movies when your off the grid, but the DVD mechanism couldn't take the road vibrations I guess
