It pulls great. It only weighs 12,400. Hitch weight is 2200-2300. I need to tweek the hitch a bit. It sits a bit high, so I will adjust before our trip in 2 weeks.

I haul these.

Yes sir, pulling her flat will sure get more life out of the rubber. Do you have an onboard Onan? great option for boondocking

Oh yea. 5500 watt onan. 18 gallon fuel cell that feeds the generator and a 30 gallon tank with hand pump to fill toys and/or re-fuel generator fuel cell.

Almost set up identical to mineup

Don't know how much experience you have with the Onan and a fuel station, So I will throw this at you. Get some seafoam and/or stabilz in there 24/7 and run her at least 30 minutes a month under full load. Those carbs are a MOFO and ARE NOT re-buildable, You can thank Californian carb laws and ethanol for that. I'd also do the oil change after 20 hrs and go with mobile one syn.

If you google that 5500, you will find poor fuel management is the biggest killer.

That happens quite a bit. Bad fuel is the biggest culprit with those generators mostly people just let it sit for too long. Same thing with the fueling station. They will let the fuel just sit there and then wonder why the pump won't run.

Also whenever you go to fill those tanks don't try to pull the fuel handle full blast otherwise the back pressure will shoot gas back out at you.

I have had a bumper pull toy hauler with generator/fuel cell before so I am familiar with these machines.

Thanks guys, We love it.
