He said that when they pick pick units up from Jayco that's how they do it! So as far as a "no brainer" I was just going on what my dealer/sales person told me. I've used A WDH last 4 campers I've had over the past 20 some years.
Is there a way for the dealer to ride with you in your Tahoe, hooked up to the trailer so he can see how it is handling?

One other thing doesn't the 2002 Tahoe have coil springs in the rear? If so then that is totally different that the 1/2 ton silverado which has leaf springs...just a thought

Any dealer or salesman that said, "Just drop it on the ball and go", needs to be in jail.
