Whatever you do, check youtube for trailer sway. That will encourage you to make sure your tongue weight and weight distribution is proper. It will also help you decide not to speed. ????
In all seriousness the instructions for your weight distribution hitch should have details for how to ensure your hitch height is correct and then how to measure the front wheel wells with and without the WDH. That’s the only way to make sure you’re set correct.
Hey op. Gongrats on the camper. I’ve recently started towing a camper too and went through some learning curve. Your wds definitely needs tweaks. AFAIK there are 2 ways to adjust them: when the bars are on and you tight them more or during the hitch assembly. Once you figure out and adjust the wds, look into air springs (or airbags) to mitigate the rest of the squat. Squat is not only bad for your driving experience and safety, but you’ll also blind other drivers in the dark. Here’s a guide from Airlift about wds with air springs: https://www.airliftcompany.com/workshop/weight-distribution-bars-air-springs/

I’m pretty sure you’re going to kill your whole family and everyone else on Earth towing that massive trailer with your vastly underpowered tow vehicle.
Congratulations! We just got back from our first long trip in our Wolf Pup too. It was a little small and cramped after 2 weeks but honestly wasn’t as bad as I expected going into it.
She wants the D!!! Lol.
Call your dealer or Forest River to get the D back. Had to do that with mine as well. Prep the surface better. Clean. Use alcohol to remove grease/etc. Love our Wolfpup.
If your bed is fully raised and the screen doesn’t show its correct posutuon, it makes me think a sensor has failed or out of alignment. I would start by looking for a sensor and checking it out.
When I get mine I plan to go to national parks, state parks, and restaurants from the show Diners, Drive-ins, & Dives. I want to dig for sapphires in Montana and eat fresh lobster in Maine. I want to visit old growth forests in the PNW (whatever’s is left following the fires), take art workshops from the Savanna College of Art & Design, and roller skate at any old rink I can find along the way. Oh, and museums. I can hardly wait to see all kinds of museums.
Stay within a day or two drive from home for the first 30-60 days…to better find out what’s going to break down. Do the ME, VT, NH route before it gets too cold.
Hey fellow MA E350 driver! We are currently in the last week of 6 National Parks! We have been to Mammoth Cave, Gateway Arch, Great Sand Dunes, Mesa Verde, Zion, and about to arrive in Badlands. All of these parks are amazing. Mammoth was way cooler than I thought, def take a tour inside the cave. Great Sand Dunes has the most varied terrain in one location I’ve ever seen. Zion is nuts, the Narrows is awesome. I went up to Angels landing and after watching people go belly to belly over the chain, I left and went up the west rim trail and the view from there is outrageous. Mesa Verde, which we did not plan to go to but ended up at was incredible. There are so many buildings under the caves and to see the changes in their architecture over the years was really cool. That park does a really nice job with its layout and how it makes you cover their history.
I’ve used mine as a ski chalet(most ski resorts don’t give you any problem if you park in the back of their lots), you can drive it out on the National seashore(wash the underneath after!), Assateague Island in Maryland is a great place, we drive up to the white mountains on a Friday night crash in a parking lot and hiking the next morning.
Really just use it. Take it everywhere you can, see everything you can. The country is a crazy place and almost everyone is cool despite what politics and the media try to portray!
Pick a direction (N, W, E or S) then look at you atlas, (because I’m sure you have one) Then stay away from interstates and head towards national forest/ parks. That’s what I did.
Just got my first one today. Same thing, but a 28’. Have wife and two young girls. Thinking of state parks here in MN, but then would love to head east.
I’ve got an 04 excursion with the 6.0 and pull a Coleman Lantern 334BH and it does just fine. Next year we plan to drag the camper about 3,000 miles to Maine and back for our summer vacation. The only advice I can give you is to make sure the gain is adjusted properly for your rig fully loaded while pulling the mountains.
Yeah, definitely not safe. If you want a hideout to keep you safe from the bad guys, you really shouldn’t put “HIDEOUT” on the outside in big block letters.
It’s a QX56, they are rated to tow 8500 lbs, the camper is a 176BH that has a GVW of 4500 lbs, I’d say he’s probably good in all aspects including payload (has a payload of ~1600lbs). Seems he may need a WD hitch but that’s about it.
Lord, talk about dragging ass. I just got a 22′ Salem, and I’m pulling with a 2000 Ram 1500, and I feel the struggle at times. Shit, I’m surprised that he hasn’t cracked that egg in 2.
Saw one couple weeks ago when we were dispersed camping in Colorado a couple weeks ago. Looked to be an International or Kenworth 4×2 cargo truck with like a 20′ box converted into a camper. Behind that they towed a 30 foot flat bed trailer that was at same height as truck box floor. They then put a canopy/tent over half the flat bed. The back of the truck box rollup door opened to reveal a wood plank back wall with windows and regular door. So they had a sun porch and covered porch, and camper they could just walk back and forth between. Pretty sweet DIY
Oh good. I just see so many people posting here and are never sure about tow sizes etc. Honestly I’m one of those guys as well I find it very confusing. It seems to tow great little sway when it’s windy or taking a curve fast but otherwise fine. It’s a 2019 f150 with the tow package (1130lbs) and pro trailer back up (love this) and the trailer gvw is 6363lbs.
Trailer brake control gain what do you guys set yours at??
pretty good color match and the alignment of truck bed with light to dark line on the trailer is appealing. maybe switch out the rims on the trailer to match the truck?
Plus you don’t end up with a trashed recycled tank, either. Been having mine refilled for the whole two years I’ve been full time. If you’re new to the refill game, you can usually find refills at Uhaul (but not “Uhaul Neighborhood Dealer”), Tractor Supply, some hardware stores, and some gas stations.
Yes. IME exchange tanks are never completely filled, whether for safety or financial reasons I cannot say. But that isn’t why I do an exchange – I do it to get rid of my janky old tank and get a fresh one that’s not chipped, rusted, or past its inspection date! Then I go on to have that tank refilled as usual, until it’s beat up enough to exchange again.
Two problems I’ve found. First, obviously it only works for 20lb vertical gas service cylinders, e.g. grill tanks. My RV has 30-lb horizontal tanks – no exchanging on those. Oh well.
Second – I’ve only heard this, not experienced it myself, but I’ve heard that some (not all) Blue Rhino tanks have a custom valve body that prevents refilling except by special equipment owned by Blue Rhino. I can’t say if it’s true. I can say I just stick with the other brand, and haven’t had any problem getting those refilled at any standard filling station.
If you throw a single little drop of dishwashing soap in there it will break the surface tension and the flies won’t be able to stand on the water, causing them to drown faster.
I figured out that they love my white wine so much that I just put a drop of dish liquid in leftover wine and keep it in a sippy cup. I catch tons of no-see-ums this way
Cut the top third off, mix your potion, then push the top in upside down. You don’t want any potion on the top because they won’t be drawn into the trap.
2011 rv cruiser Corp viewfinder. Bought from a friend and he said the electric jack doesn’t work. I never had an issue with the manual jack. Replaced the battery today so hopefully the electric works.
But why can’t I lower it manually?
If you are going to live in it full-time, does that mean you will rent a year-round spot at an RV camp? Presumably you’ll travel a lot too. How many months of the year will you be on the road?
Sorry if these are dumb questions. I’m a noob (obviously).
the lithium package looks amazing with extra alternator. Does it have an engine auto start or high idle mode for boondock recharge without having to take a drive?
This is great. My SO and I are planning going full time once the kids are off to college in a few years. Currently eyeballing something a little bigger like the Winnebago Navion/View. It’ll be us and two medium dogs so I think it will size up well. And have room if the kids wanna pop in for a visit.
Great platform! We needed something bigger for full time/most timing 🙂 but these are fantastic rigs. I will forever be jealous of the ease of Class B/Van life for access to the best boondocking. Happy travels!
Those look to be railroad ties. if they are they have been treated with creosote. I would suggest not eating any food grown near them as it can cause cancer, kidney, liver and a whole host of other health problems
Although this seems to be a nice idea to help others I suggest you refrain from continuing the practice. Wily nilly going around planting things can ruin the local ecosystem and fauna in that area. Especially if you are not there to tend and care for it. Not all flowers are meant to grow in every environment and even if you did this after careful research that none would be a non native invasive plant that can kill off the other plants, or that it can be poisonous to animals.
That air bag hitch is pretty badass. I’m sure it helps a lot woth the bouncing on such a long bumper pull. I know some guys use a bag hitch on gooseneck. Crazy to think these were pulled by 4spd big block pick ups… but I assume this is a park model, so probably brought in by a bigger heavier duty truck..
Just for ground clearance you could probably remove a washer from your hitch head and grab a few more links of chain on the weight distributing bars. Looks good though, how does the Flex tow?
Nope, OP you obviously didn’t read the trailer hitch load rating. You need a F-250 diesel AT LEAST. That trailer is at least 3k lbs, and your f-150 can haul only 10k, just to be safe you need a F-250 so you can haul 18k. That’s the only way you can feel secure.

It’s a 2021 Jayco Jay Flight 184BS and I just picked it up today! Besides the fact that I want to own and use an RV with my kids from time to time, I primarily bought it to rent it out and make a side gig out of it since I work from home. I should be able to host it pretty easily. Looking forward to the experience!
Looks good, I have 1 about the same size, really enjoy getting out and the smaller size makes it easy to get into the quirky small, awkward sites. Best of luck with the side gig.
I’m having a little anxiety about that right hand shoulder. I love the mountains and yet cliff edges are becoming increasingly difficult for me. Does anyone have any tips (other than exposure therapy)?
Given you have that lovely large wind shield, consider a Garmin Dashcam Mini, $99 from target – I’ve gotten some fantastic footage over the cascade passes with one.
We rolled into a Ford dealership hoping they had any 1 tons available, they showed us a 2018 f-450 and I was like … No way we can afford this but they gave us a smoking deal and even filled up the Diesel. So excited to hook this thing. It’s been a long struggle looking for a truck in 2021.
This is the way! Crossing Montana I pulled in to a small rest area to ride out a winter storm. It was so nice to kick on the furnace and cook a meal for my self. Kick back in my recliner and watch a movie and get back in the road refreshed.
I’ll say it saved us the cost of a hotel room, but they were all booked anyway. That still counts as saving a monthly payment! Was nice to see some family. They have the best fireworks show there, so close to the action.
Finally! A campsite with RP1 and LOX piped in! For when you absolutely, positively must cook your baked potato in 0.15 seconds. Although I have heard that this campground can get really, really, really, loud for 45 seconds or so every once in a while.
I’m so stoked to move into our rv within the next few months, but I’m jealous I won’t get to travel right off the bat! We’re gonna be parked til we get our debts paid down a little more. Fingers crossed we can hit the road by this time next year….
Looks like you had a great year! Keep on keeping on!
God speed. The fourth is super busy on the island. Visit Irie’s Island Food for lunch. The chefs tacos are amazing. Also, tomorrow across the ferry in Rockport is one of the biggest art shows in Texas. It is great fun.
We like to stay at Goose Island state park as a base and spend the day on the beach a couple of days and hit the MILB game in Corpus. The park is nice and peaceful and a great break from the crowds of Port A.
Maiden voyage in our 2011 Freedom Express 246RKS. Took a lot of work and money to get her fixed up as the previous owners didn’t bother to winterize it here in Canada. Hot water tank split, toilet valve split. Floor flooded and was soft in the back half. Had to replace floor, tank and toilet. Everything seems to be fine now.
I like it. I’ve been thinking of doing something similar. Wanting to install a slide out in one of my basement compartments on my motorhome and fit my Blackstone grill on it.

The broken part is just a cover to mate the pipe to your roof. Most hardware stores will carry something you can use for a replacement. Search for “vent pipe flashing”. Be careful when you remove the existing caulk to not damage your roof membrane. Then use appropriate RV caulk for the replacement. I like self-leveling Dicor for horizontal surfaces. Do not use silicone caulk.
It feels like it could just be a cover of some sort. I’m still new to this so I had been reluctant to just teat into it without understanding what’s going on.
Get a good surge protector like other people said, but also keep a fresh can of wasp spray in your tools compartment. I got the shit stung out of me in FL (my first year owning an RV) when I opened one of these boxes to find a very unhappy bunch of little assholes.
You’re not alone! Experienced full-time RVers here. Pulled in to an awesome COE campground with 50A last week. On the 2nd day, all the lights went out. Went outside and realized that we never closed the breaker when we got there! Doh!
We’re outfitted for boondocking with solar and a healthy bank of lithium (LiFePO4) batteries so it was a slower drawer for us but it was cloudy-ish and we ran EVERYTHING! lol
Yeah, it’s pretty common to have the breakers off at a camp site. Good idea too IMO.
Typical thing– is it plugged in? Is it turned on? 🙂
EDIT: haven’t seen this suggested in this sub before, but it wouldn’t be a bad idea to have one of those Klein Voltage testers. Breaker could be on, but still nothing working. Is the panel bad? Is your rig bad?
Can someone explain why we’re “supposed” to turn the breaker off/on? They’re not switches – they’re protection from overload for the wires.
No one turns the breaker off before plugging a heater in at home… and there shouldn’t be anything (except battery chargers) running in the rig when it’s plugged in. Whatever is running is gonna get the same jolt when the breaker flips.
So is there an actual reason, or did someone just start it and everyone else does it?

Wow that’s crazy. Might be easier to get a plastic welding kit. Essentially a heat gun and some plastic filler rod you melt into place. Looks like the fitting on the take is what was eaten. If it was the pipe or pipe fitting no issue. Tank piece more difficult.

Some might argue that your shelves are installed upside down. I know for sure mine are flipped and that it helps keep things on the shelves when travelling.

I highly recommend stopping at fruit stands in CA. Especially, northern CA. It is usually ripe and perfect for that season. If I have a need for some good fruit, the stands are the way to go.
Are they Harvest Hosts? We’ve had some really interesting stays through them. Only bad part is we end up spending way more than the recommended $20 typically ????
My wife and I are in the market for a set of these. We have not been able to determine which are sturdy and which are junk going by reviews. Would you say these are of a quality build? The market is flooded with so many brands. Did you purchase these online?

Nice I keep hearing people say they are having warranty issues with this brand .Once you use it give me some feed back and give me your opinion later .On how long a Warrenty claim takes Doing some research… They are nice congratulations…
I’ve owned 2 trailers in the last 5 years and the very first thing I did was put Goodyear Endurance tires on both axles and the spare. I see NO valid reason to run Chinese tires.
Going down the road at 65mph and BANG!!. TPMS went from 75psi to 0 and started warning me. Luckily got slowed down before it shredded and was able to change it. Found a Walmart with 2 in stock bought both. I now have 4 new trailer tires. This almost happened before but I felt a vibration in the truck and pulled over before they blew.
This time I didn’t feel any vibration, the tire just blew.
Before our next trip I’ll be replacing the spare tire, with a Firestone or Goodyear.
I work in the service department at an RV dealer, no customer will ever believe me when I tell them but you’ll save money by putting good tires on a camper before you ever use it. They always find out after the first blowout though

Has anyone used an aftermarket tankless water heater instead of the heater that comes with their rv? I’ve been having an issue with ours, it’s still under warranty but it could be a few weeks until they can work on it. We’re trying to take her out 4th of July weekend.
The only thing with tankless… You need to have a bypass at the tap to send to cold water back to your tank or you end up wasting a lot of water waiting for the actual warm water to show up at the shower head or tap. The hot water is instant in the heater but the lines are not.
Plenty of rvers have replaced with tank less and I think about it for our toyhauler. You can buy the ones that are designed to fit in the place of the water heater that you currently have installed.

Just bought an aurora 18bhs. We were after something on the smaller size for our family. While this one was a bit bigger than initially wanted, it fit all of our needs.
It’s a bit heavier than we wanted for the pathfinder at 3950 dry, but it will be ok pulling it as long as we pack smart. We are trying to get 3-5 years out of the crapfinder before buying a truck

To be honest the dealer might not have known about the plug either… They are usually pulled to the dealerships via independent trailer haulers. They might have experienced a low tire and fixed it on the way. And in my experience they get left usually on the lot washed and not a lot of conversation from those guys who drop them. Sign and go grab the next one cuz Bob and Betty can’t wait for their new trailer to show.
Might not help your situation but it’s a he said she said deal now and depending your relationship with the dealer as another post mentioned might not be worth the hassle.
That’s totally safe, on a car if some of the plug is exposed it usually packs down with regular driving. But even if it doesn’t the plug will hold just fine. It’s unsightly and can be alarming but doesn’t hurt the running of it any.
I get my mini lite next week and am so excited! I love that you can move the tv from inside to outside – since they used the same mount. I love fall camping during college football season, so that’ll make is so fun.
That looks like a nice spot. Before covid we would get down to Montana every year for 9 days. We have only camped in a couple places within 45min to an hour away from Kalispell.
We have some some nice places up here in Alberta, but absolutely LOVE Montana, can’t wait till things get back to normal.
