      Thanks Rich! It towed straight as an arrow, no sway and at times felt like nothing was behind me until we got to a hill then could feel the weight but that’s normal. Overall, the setup worked better than expected. Thanks for watching, have a great day!! 👊🏼🏁

    Do you know what the trailer is weighting in at fully loaded?
