I think (hope) I am ready to go!!!

Well, first off I bought my truck a month ago. Second bought my first new/used 5th wheel about 4 weeks ago. Since then I have been busy.... installed gauges, a TruCool Tranny cooler, and trailer hookup inside the bed. Also getting the 5th wheel ready. Stocking it with food, blankets and all the small things. Today I bought a little BBQ and a 105 piece tool kit for it.

Being my first time out with a 5th wheel and all I am hoping everything goes OK. Not my first time towing, I am not worried about that. We are going to a lake that is about 120 miles away, someplace close for the weekend for our first outing! Well... we leave Friday so wish me luck!

Looks real nice.
If it isn't your first time towing that's good,
just remember your clearance height.
Don't worry and have a good time.

i would repack the wheel bearings and check the brakes on the 5th wheel before you go. when i get a used trailer that is the first thing that i do because it is one simple thing that can cause alot of trouble. there is no way of knowing what the old owner did or didn't do.
