Those were the days.. I had a 26' Layton that even with my crew cab I could put in any state or national park my wife could find!!

Which part exactly am I being laughed at for here??

 

I'm not laughing AT you, I'm laughing at the tease you threw at Russ.

It that wasn't meant as a ribbing/tease, then I sure did take it wrong!!

Haha, okay. Well, it wasn't totally meant that way but hindsight I can see how a guy might take it that way.

Sorry Russ.

 

So I took the TT to the dealership yesterday to have a few items fixed that broke during our last trip. The trailer is still under warranty so why not? The exhaust pipe bracket for the generator broke, the sewer cap broke, a piece of trim inside started coming off, a exterior trim piece blew off, the water heater is leaking, and something came off on the antenna and it looks like the wind blew it back and bent it slightly.

Well the dealership is ok with everything except the antenna, they said it looks like a branch could have hit it.... The thing has alwas been down and they is now impact damage on the antenna or anywhere else on the roof. They agreed there was no other damage to the roof but a tree could have still in the antenna hard enough to bend it back?? They said I can buy a new one for $170. I told them to skip it...I will check it out closer when I get it back and take some pictures and see what I can get done about it.

 

No on the WDH. Never had any issues with sway or anything.

The rear sag looks worse because the front is so high (X-code springs), it is pretty tongue heavy but she tows wonderfully! I always head out loaded down with full water tank which is located right in the front of the trailer.

If/when I upgrade trailers I may go with some sort of extra sway control.

My F-150 pulls it better then the Ex though, reason being the 411HP 6.2 V8 and 6 speed transmission.



Before the X-codes in the front



Want to talk overloaded, this pic was taken south of me.

 

Is that a Chrysler 300?

 

holy crap, those airstreams are heavy

Keep him away from me

 

Actually, most Airstreams aren't that heavy. But I still don't see how that car can pull even 2000 lbs.

 

yeah look em up, a 2006, 22 foot airstream is 4160 lbs dry weight

compared to other models they are way heavy.

That one looks at least 26' to me.....

 

Russ, isn't nearly EVERYPLACE South of you?

I also just realized that they have a Hensley Arrow hitch on that combo, there are rational limits to even the best parts.......

 

Hey. it's probably got a hemi in it, it'll be fine.

 

Russ that pic belongs here. Hemi, Hensley, strap-ons and all.
