I think it's more to do with the leveling kit. Although I might get them just so it levels it back up anyway. Not sure if the angle of the pic helps either. Doesn't look quite so bad from complete side on.

Pic of the trailer hooked up with the airbags fitted. Feels so much better towing it and sits perfect. I think i will always have them on any TV I own now after that trip.

The truck with our old hybrid, a 2005 Starcraft Travel Star 19CK. We haven't taken possession of the new Jay Flight yet, so no pics.

Looks good, Pete. It will tow that 29.5BHDS like it's not even there.

Before I upgraded to this truck, I had a 2013 F250 and it didn't even breathe hard with the 27.5BHS. Just amazingly smooth and strong.
