I have a 13 with the same specs (minus the lighter body) so I won't answer your question, just curious what you're thinking of towing?

But your odometer knows, so you're adding miles on faster. Get your speedo recalculated.

Also remember, the tire size is width/aspec ratio-rim size. A 70 aspec ratio on a 245 tire isn't the same...

I tow a Jayco 184BH with our minivan rated at 3,500lbs. You definitely need a WDH and I recommend the sway as well. I also added airbags for the rear springs. I promise you are right at the limits of...

There's also a Jellystone near Canyon Lake if you're into that kind of park. Close spots but lots of kid activities. I second the Fredericksburg area. Museum of the Pacific War is awesome. So is the...

I'm one of those rare people that doesn't drink coffee. Never cared for the ritual. My family is actually a tea family and I never caught on to that either. I just like a big glass of OJ!

Yeah, never a 100%. I do like the idea of the fridge. Most seem to not really use the stove portion. I think ideally, if I could design my own, I'd have a pullout counter with a couple drawers and...

That is exactly what we would use the storage for as well. The pass-thru just isn't convenient for that type of stuff. Appreciate the heater answer. I wish the a/c unit was a dual a/c and heater. I...

Thanks for the replies. I think we're leaning to forgo the kitchen, mostly because of the storage issue. We already do most of our cooking outside on our little coleman grill. I think if the TT we...

I learned (this weekend) that you should close the vent covers of your TT prior to going home. Thankfully, they were still there and no other damage upon arrival, aside from a messy bathroom.
