Video

Just found your channel. EXCELLENT video!

Love how the camera shows none of the important stuff blah blah blab

Awesome video - well done. Very helpful for beginner as we are.

I was looking for the video in the mountain, but it seems not there. How was your driving experience in the mountain near lake gorge north New York

Can you tell me what model this is?? I thought I found it but the weight is different 🤷🏻‍♀️

Good video!

This was exactly what I was looking for - thank you!

If you didn't know the size of the receiver end of the trailer, and if it was a trailer you hadn't used before, how would you know what to do and if it was compatible? (This may be the case when looking at used trailers for sale). And also can you put a 2 inch receiver on a 1.5" ball? Or do they have to be exactly the same size for both parts?

You are way over towing capacity on the whole set up, Please do your home work.

Just bought a Ford explorer xlt 2020, so this video was really handy!

You’re past your tongue weight capacity…trailer weighs 4300 lbs x 10% = 430lbs plus two propane tanks at 60lbs plus that bike rack plus weight distribution hitch that is at least 60lbs plus battery for a minimum weight of at least 550lbs tongue weight. You’re probably closer to 600 lbs tongue weight…this is a prime example of what you should not be towing this size trailer with.

Nitrogen filled tires……. I’m gonna start selling helium filled tires…. Good video otherwise

I have a similiar trailer and tow it with a ONE TON DUALLY Diesel. In an accident the first thing LE will look at is the equiptment so know that your setting yourself up for a real problem by using poorly matched equipment. THE WRONG TOW VECHILE....

Next time you do this again use a ford expedition 5.4 letter V8 engine

Nice and good review

Thanks, I've learned a lot on how to connect camper trailer to a tow truck. Do you have a video step-by-step on how to park the camper trailer into a camp area?

Meet the privileged and entitled

bro, safer to get 1/2 ton truck..

Lost me at the trump sticker…

Wrong. It doesn't come within you're towing capabilities. 4300 lbs dry and 5000 towing capacity only allows 700 pounds for passengers and gear. So, hypothetically two people equals 300lbs, add towing hitch with weight distribution and sway 100lbs and one is left with next to nothing for gear, groceries etc, And, forget about towing with anything in the fresh, grey and black tanks.

As someone who has pulled 100K, 3 loads a day on highway and back road, if you inspect your equipment and maintain it properly and drive correctly, maintain proper following distance so you don't have to jack the brakes, running close to the GVWR wont be an issue, and no DOT trooper will give you a rash of shit if you go over a scale, they just say "Drive safe and have a nice day".

4300 lbs dry, looks like he’s got a ton of stuff in that trailer. The weight of that trailers is closer to 6000 lbs. way too much for that explorer and a family of 6 he’s way over payload capacity of the SUV. This is a seriously overloaded set up that is not safe. Being over weight jeopardizes your insurance and any warranty on the vehicle. Do not claim dry weight when you can see nobody goes camping with an empty trailer including this one. You are only fooling yourself, Do not just pick and choice the lowest number to make you feel you are right. It’s dangerous for your family and everyone else in the road. This is not a safe nor legal with the weights set up

I wouldn't do that operation wearing a pair of flip-flops. I guess I like my toes too much.

Safety?????? 2 6 volt batteries are 130 lbs 2 30 lbs propane tanks are 110 EQ hutch is 75 lbs That’s over 300 lbs without the trailer. Your hitch weight is closer to 900 lbs for a max factory hitch weight rating of 500 lbs? This is far from a safe towing set up.

Great review and video. Have you tried making a Swedish torch fire in it?

Excellent salesman!!

Do you need the brake controller or does the tow button do what the brake controller does?

I have a ‘19 Platinum with a 21’ 3k lb dry travel trailer. Do you still recommend using the prodigy break controller?

What is you average rpm? Do you turn of tow mode when vehilce is up to speed? Towing an rpod 176 this friday. Just want to hear your thoughts

Perfect rc trailer for suv towing. Good review

Thank you for the great video. I have a 2020 Ford Explorer and I wasn’t sure if it would toll my new trailer, but after seeing yours, I’m pretty sure will be OK. Thank you.

If that bag was kevlar it would cost more than the stove 😊

Is there a hiking trail directly from the campground?

Good info but please, for safety sake, wear work boots and NOT flip flops!!

Please do not take this guys advice on towing! The only thing he ever mentions is dry trailer weight and vehicle tow capacity. He never mentions GCWR, front and rear axle max weight or vehicle payload. There is no way he is not over payload and gross combined weight rating. Folks should understand, you can't just say I am rated to to 5000 lbs. and the trailer is only 4300 pounds. Please do not think this is okay! Watch videos and learn or find someone who knows and can teach you how to know if you are towing safely. Lastly, I seriously hope he has upgraded to a proper vehicle for this camper or sold the camper.

I know this is an old video, but prove you are within safe weight ranges. Make a video at the scales and prove you are not over payload, and GCWR. Let us see the weight ticket!

I think I just found my travel trailer.. This is fantastic 👏 👌

Lol, the bird is helping you!!

I still think that's too much weight and length for the explorer. I have a GX 470 and I still wouldn't try to tow the trailer. To be on safe side and more convenient I rather get a class C motorhome. My family and other safety is fist.

So what is everyone’s take on a non factory class III tow hitch on an ‘15 XLT pulling a 19ft camper that weights 3100lbs dry using a wt dist hitch with anti-sway and trailer brake. Plan on pulling dry on mostly flat areas places.

Nitrogen in tires is a gimmick, he must be a sales person.

Question here:D. Lets say youre done camping/are coming home to store your trailer. Are you levelling the trailer/using stabilizing jacks while its not in use, or is the front jack on the blocks sufficient when storing on property. Ty

What??????? No Jacuzzi?

Atmospheric air is 78% Nitrogen. Please people, stop paying for this crap at dealerships. It is a total rip off.

I see that your valve coming from fresh tank to pump is closed , does it matter if the fresh tank bypass valve stays open or closed when adding antifreeze.

Thank you

what do you do with your black tank flush line for winter?

Min 1:50 Newbies might not know that stabilizer jacks are JUST for stabilizing. I hear that if you try to lift or level with them (big temptation) you'll crack/bend/pull-apart the floorboards, or something awful like that.

I regularly pull my dual axle utility trailer grossing close to its 7k lb max( with firewood) and my f150 did it no problem, so I was surprised when I brought home our 24ft 4k lb travel trailer and it handled terrible. I was bouncing up and down and swaying all over the interstate. I now know that the the campers tongue weight is more than my utility trailer because of the relative position of the axles and that I need a weight distributing hitch with sway control. I'm also gonna invest in some timbren ses bump stops because my truck would benefit loaded,unloaded, towing,or hauling. I dont lack for power or braking,but certainly was caught with my pants down otherwise.
