Doesn’t look like there’s any tongue weight since it’s sitting on the jack. 🙂
Both cool rigs tho.
That’s not enough camper for that truck. You need to go get a bigger camper asap, I wouldn’t go down the road like that 😉 .
Found a screaming deal on this 2019 F-350 DRW considering the market and couldn’t pass it up. I was towing my Shartland (not a typo) with a 2020 Sierra SLT. But the Sierra only had a 20-gallon fuel tank, so I was filling up every 200-250 miles or so. Not having a diesel was eating away at my sanity even though the Sierra had the 6.2L. I missed the torque and exhaust brake of a diesel.
The stealership caved and gave me $50,880 for my Sierra (originally offered 46), paired with some down payment I walked away with the f-350 for a song and wink. Already hooked the Shartland up and pulled a 7% grade at 65mph near where I live and walked away grinning. Couldn’t even tell there was a trailer hooked up.
Upgrades to the trailer I’ve done, mostly myself. Modifying the trailer is one of my hobbies:
- 600w of solar
- 2x Maxxair fans
- Cel-fi go x booster
- 3000w inverter
- 3x 115ah lithiums (one more to add in to make it 4 but that’s for another day.)
- Lithium Converter
- Blackstone grill on outside kitchen
- Goodyear Endurance tires
- Gennygo tray on the rear bumper (it’s welded really well directly to the frame.)
- RV Airflow Systems A/C insert
- Furrion backup camera
- Bidet (toilet paper is for heathens and expensive. But I do keep a few rolls in the rv just in case)
- Lippert Solid Stance
- Sony Speakers swapping out the crappy paper cones that came with the trailer
I’ve done a few other projects to it and mostly use it for hunting and fishing, weekend camp trips. I’m not a fan of Heartland products and wouldn’t recommend them. But this one is paid off and I don’t get uppity about modifying and tearing it apart to get it how I want it to be. This one’s mine and when my daughter is older and has torn it apart, I’ll probably get a grand design or arctic fox. Maybe lance. Who knows?
the only thing scary about this setup is the truck is so big, I think Id forget the trailer is back there, and wrap around a corner telephone pole. but yeah, im sure that back end will get a little squirrly on you at speeds.
It’s when you put your tongue on the
When you kill yourself, your family, and the family driving behind you…..
Then you’ll figure out that tongue weight IS important.
Please get a front and rear car camera so we can see the results!
