Ohh and I'm 35, was a cub scout as a child and worked all the way up to almost completing my eagle but aged out before that could happen. Married with a 1.5 year old and about to expose my Kentucky born wife and child to the beauty of our state that I learned as a kid. I'm really looking forward to the future!

Yes you are right, I REALLY do not want to put anymore weight at the rear. I'd rather the weight be towards the tongue more, I'd just have to be lowered or moved somehow to get the bunk end out. So I am looking for suggestions.

Yeah I am kind of like Steve, now that I think about it more I do not want to add any additional weight to the rear. And yes if I had a truck bed it wouldn't be an issue.

What about a roof rack for your TV? Then use the mount type where you remove the front tire.

Off topic, but my son just completed his Eagle Project last weekend. He'll be 15 next month. We're SO proud of him. I was a Boy Scout too, but I quit as a Life Scout.

Huge accomplishment, even more so at that age and this day in age. You and your wife should be proud, deservedly.

Thanks. He has a lot of paperwork still to do, but should have the Eagle pinned to his chest in a few months.

I was pulling my 2018 xy17z with a 13 Honda pilot and used wdh with it.
Did a great job and I would have stuck with Honda but with 5k tow limit it didnt leave door open for a bigger trailer.
So my xmas present was a new GMC sierra 1500 cc.
2 big differences...the engine doesn't scream you and I hardly feel anything behind me.
Also no real need now to use the wdh.
