Congrats in the more capable tow rig!

How does the fifth sit with that truck? I have a 2014 3500 srw ram and I backed under a 28.5 or 29.5...can't remember which and it didn't have enough pin weight and was about 6 in he's high at least in the front. Didn't buy it because of that (but I think the new rams sit up a good bit more)

'14 Tundra and '13 Jayco

They do make a nice pair. My wife likes how they are almost matching in color schemes. I just like how they travel together! We both love camping in them.

Does look like there might be a bit of hitch weight on that ball.

New here and new to TT, but here's my tow rig, and 2006 Jayco JayFlight 31BHS. Its already had quite the adventure from Houston, to Louisiana; Louisiana to Kansas; Kansas back to Louisiana. I know you might not believe it but the Expedition pulls our trailer as if it's not there.

What's the tongue weight on that trailer,seems like the truck is squatting a bit?
Maybe the WD bars need to be cranked up a notch.

Nice looking rig though...

Yes it is. Around 1060 but it was snowing so I grabbed and took it home. still playing with the wd hitch. But have got it close but I'm still adding stuff so weight is changing still.

Here's our new tow vehicle! It's a 2015 GMC Acadia Denali AWD, which will tow our 2014 Jayco X17Z for season #2 after the New England winter is behind us.
