Someone mentioned this in the welcome folder and then another lady solo from another forum emailed me on this topic so figured I'd get a thread started. For me the first big fear will be driving in general....I like small vehicles and love my motorcycle for its ability to get out of the way. <g> I p...

Anyone towing a Toyota Tacoma? I know it is not recommended in the manual, but I have heard that some have figured out a way to do it safely. The truck is out of warranty but has been very well maintained and runs like a top. We'd like to keep it. It is a 2000, 4 WD, V6 that we'd like to tow four down. We don'...

Hello Everyone— I'm not new to RVing but I am new to towing a trailer. My new "Canned Ham" 10.5 feet long pulls nicely by my GMC Sonoma—but here is the question: The trailer rides too low in front and the truck too low in back. Weight equalizer trunnion bars come in many many sizes. Should I buy a...

Please forgive me if this has been asked before. I didn't see it but could have missed it. We are trying to understand weights...and while my husband and I are rather inelegant people we are not wrapping our heads around this.

I thought I'd post this in the Solo RVer category since I will mostly be hitching up and towing solo. Any advice or suggestions? Here's the video I made, to help remind myself what to do!

I purchased a 30' 5th wheel ( Gulfstream Seahawk ) . I believe the weight is 8700 lbs. i needed a truck I could pull it with and so I purchased this 3/4 ton Chevy with a 6.0 liter gas engine .

Even though the State of Michigan seems to think I can tow a 15,000# trailer without any brakes I don't think it's a good idea and I'm not too sure about other states accepting my "geez I didn't know" excuse.
