Nice trailer, but the picture driving down the road doesn't look right.

traveling down the road picture

I took that picture because of how low the front was riding. I thought it was way too low but was dealers delivery guy so he must of been ok with it, made me nervous just watching it!

I realize that the towing event is moot now..., but it continues to amaze me the total lack of concern that to many RV dealers have for the general public, and their customers.

Just one good bump or aggressive maneuver and this would have been a totally different photo.....,

We love our 330RLTS. I bet those front tires are near the limit of what they can carry.

I've mentioned it in other threads, if my TV was just a little more robust I would be towing a 330RLTS by now as well.

Re Traveling down the road

thank you all for the reply's and in response to the question about how far it had to go- Was about 120 miles all freeway and two lane except for the last mile and a half which is gravel,dirt extremely rough road, down a steep and rutted section and lots of curves and little hills and more rough road then up a very steep rutted hill to get to our place. I heard the tongue drag several times, I just held my breath and didn't look lol.average speed on interstate with tongue riding low like that was 65 - 70 mph guy drove like he was nuts but he did get TT parked exactly like we wanted it.

CityFarmer,

I can't wait to hear about who the RV Dealer sends back up the mountain to haul your TT back for warranty work (should it be needed)!

Makes for a great campfire story anyways!

Ya the fire place pretty much knocked my socks off when I saw the pics.
My in-laws have a 38 footer thats perma-parked and the dealers tech did some warranty repairs on site, although it was a simple fix of the awning drive motor.

The fireplace and dual living room slides is the reason we bought our 330 rlts.

Time came when Eagle needs to go back to dealer, not a happy camper over it. Talked to the dealer, the delivery guy says no way to bringing it back out of my property to the dealership and back in again, too risky. They have decided to fix seam tape by sending a guy to work on it at my site only problem is I have to help take the toppers off and back on again, not looking forward to it, but has to be done.

CityFarmer,

You read my mind! After reading your recent post in this thread: http://www.jaycoowners.com/showthread.php?t=4201, I was recalling your towing adventure up to your property, I have to admit I was chuckling just a "little" remembering the photo .

Bob
