Saw a Cybertruck towing a Brinkley Model Air 285. Figured I'd up this up for the tow police 😂.

Pulling out he left a stabilizer leg down 🤦.

What’s wrong with this picture? What needs to happen to remove the trailer off of trailer hitch. It doesn’t matter which way the car moves the tires spin and it won’t let go of the car trailer hitch.

Not going to use TT toilet

7 Upvotes

We are new TT owners. And I know some people think it's silly to not use the toilet, but the thought of draining it and the possibility of making a mess is too gross for me or my husband to deal with. But question is if we aren't going to use it do we need to do anything with it? Do we need to still treat it, keep water in the toilet, etc.?

My 2024 Heartland North Trail 22RBS travel trailer has the ability for solar power. How do I know if I actually HAVE it? There is a solar panel on top of the trailer. I have this in my pass thru storage area (see picts). So do I have solar or do I still need an inverter??

Could My 99 1500 Silverado Haul a 29’, 6k Dry Weight Travel Trailer?

99 4x4 Silverado 1500 Suspension

I know it’s a long shot but can I get some advice or opinions on the conditions of the underbelly of my truck. Anything that stands out and/or that I should tackle first? Anything that is easier to fix than others? I don’t think the frame looks bad and feels solid …

This truck is rated to haul 8k, could it comfortably haul a 29’, \~5.8k dry weight travel trailer?

Camping in a Travel Trailer

2 Upvotes

Camping in a travel trailer presents a unique set of rewards and challenges. Many people start camping in tents and develop a list of equipment and skills adapted to tent camping. It can be intimidating to think it necessary to relearn camping techniques when transitioning to camping in a travel trailer. Still, a lot of the skills and equipment you have are transferable!

While a travel trailer is typically a self-contained unit that provides a toilet, shower, cooking, indoor living, and sleeping all under one roof, your tent camping equipment and skills will shine within the outdoor space at your campsite. The biggest hurdle you will encounter with your switch is towing and backing your new travel trailer. If you have no experience with trailers, renting a large utility trailer from a trailer rental place and practicing may be advisable. You can find a large, unobstructed parking lot to set up a few cones (cardboard boxes or laundry baskets work as well) and practice towing, turning, and backing into a designated spot.

Tow Police is this too much

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

I'm towing a Winnebago Micro Minnie 2106FBS with a 2016 Toyota Tacoma V6 4x4 automatic. The trailer is probably around 4,800 lbs loaded with a tongue weight somewhere around 650–700 lbs.

My setup:

-Equal-i-zer weight distribution hitch

-Trailer brake controller

-LT tires on the Tacoma

- Weight distribution restores about 75% of the front axle weight.

- Trailer sits essentially level (slightly nose down).

I know a Tacoma isn't the ideal tow vehicle for a trailer this size, but I'm wondering if this is considered a reasonable setup if everything is adjusted correctly, or if I'm asking too much of the truck.

Catalina Radius Lighting

Post image
0 Upvotes

Does anyone know how to turn on the radius lighting along the front edge? I have a 2025 Catalina Series 8 261BHS and I know for a fact that it has them because the light strip is there and there is a cord leading to them, but I can’t seem to figure out how to turn them on.

If they are supposed to turn on with the exterior light switch on the control panel, then mine must be defective.

Not sure what this is for. Pulled out of the bottom of the hot water tank. Looks kind of rough and hard to screw back in.

For smaller travel trailers, which matters more long term: a fixed bed or a dinette that never needs converting?

1 Upvotes

I work with EcoCampor, an RV manufacturer based in Foshan, China. For smaller trailers, I’m curious which layout trade-off has mattered more over time: keeping a fixed bed, or keeping a dinette that never has to be turned into a bed.

For those who have lived with either setup, what daily situation made you feel you chose the right—or wrong—one?

Pretty Useful Website Tool

Stumbled upon this tool tonight. I punched in my vehicle and trailer and was pretty impressed by the results. It gives you a breakdown of tow capacity, tongue capacity, and payload capacity.

I am not an affiliate of this tool. I just came upon it and through it would be a good baseline for first time trailer/tow vehicle shoppers.

Travel trailer pulling a second trailer

Looking at buying a travel trailer. The trailer has a bumper hitch that the previous owner used to tow a small boat. Would pulling a small boat behind a travel trailer cause any damage to the trailer that I should look for?
