Talking Well, we are going to do it...

DW and I are pulling the trigger on the 2020 36FBTS Pinnacle. Go Thursday to trade in our current 5th wheel. Excited and nervous all at the same time!

Beautiful! We love ours. Make sure they install (2) group 27’s at a minimum. Heard some like to install 24”s which won’t cut it with the residential fridge.

Thank you. I've already told them I want the 27s for my batteries. I'll see when I get there Thursday.

We did not order it, dealer had got it for a show, but we stumbled upon it just looking around for new floor plans. My wife loves to go looking at RVs... so we both get ourselves in trouble sometimes! Hoping the full body paint will cut down my waxing. I'm little anal when it comes to keeping my RVs maintained, so not having to deal with the decals anymore will be nice.

Old F350 handled it very nicely. Our old unit had a trailair pin box with an airbag, so I was curious to how it would handle with the Morryde setup. Very pleased on the short ride home. Still contemplating airbags on the truck, but now not sure I need them.
