New member from norther Alberta
Hello everyone from norther Alberta, Canada. My wife, our three kids and myself are currently looking for our first holiday trailer. Something light weight to tow behind our SUV. I will have some more questions, which will be posted in the appropriate forum, but wanted to introduce ourselves first. Thanks

Welcome Ry-guy. Have you had a trailer before? If so, great... if not, you will want to pay particular attention to tow capacity, etc. There's a lot of good info here. Just ask.

Quahog, this is our first trailer. We have borrowed a friends last year and had a blast. Our 2011 Ford explorer is rated to tow a 5000 pound unit. This is already taking into account passengers and cargo in the TV. Thanks
