Sorry to hear that! - With exception of the 2-3 trans flare - which got flash & solenoids mine has been good - - that said the 36K bumper to bumper will be done in a week or so - so mine will probably start acting up..

Mine is up in 2k miles.... im quite worried. Luckily I bought the 100k bumper to bumper warranty.

Sounds like we drive about the same. Lol

Just picked this up yesterday, it's a 2012 Laredo 303TG. Got rid of our Passport 2590 and I was pretty surprised to find that this new rig actually pulls a lot nicer than the smaller one did, especially in the nasty crosswind yesterday. I actually told my wife that the old camper was giving me such a handful in the wind that I was thinking of waiting until today to bring the new one home - she was not having any of that!

Here she is just before going into the barn...

Nice TT, it looks like it is a 40 footer from that angle. I thought the same thing with the wind until one day I had to take it up north on a very windy day. Handled just as good as if there was no wind. Must be the truck installed sway control in conjunction with my WD/sway control hitch.

Smile The Big Trailer with the New F250

Thought that I would update some pics with my new truck. I've attached a shot of the rowing team's boat trailer I haul each week now.

I also towed a rented Bobcat and trailer and the new truck tows like a dream.

Nice trailer I have a 2010 303tg. I love it. I have pulled mine down south twice already and have never had a problem

That emblem on the side is a king ranch emblem - not a 6.7 emblem.
Now - back to our regular programming.

He's probably mistaking the King Ranch emblem on the door for a 6.7 emblem.....easy to do from a distance.
