After 12 years of not having a camper, we finally bought another one today! The new trailer is a 2019 Keystone Cougar 29BHS. It is actually still at the factory being assembled but I still had time to make some changes I wanted like theater seating...
I just purchased a brand new 2018 F-150 Lariat with the 3.5L Ecoboost motor a couple nights ago. It has the max tow package and the 3.55 gears giving it a tow rating of 13,200 pounds! I used to have a 2002 F-250 with the 7.3L diesel and I don't thi...
My wife and I are still a few years away from RVing full time but I was wondering if anybody travels with two vehicles? I have a Jeep problem. I've had Jeeps for years. Currently have a 2015 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon that I bought new. It's a pretty ...
I've been thinking about my house too. It's not paid off, but getting there. Once it's paid off, I'll still owe thousands in taxes every year. If I stop paying the taxes, it won't be my house any more. So, it's never really mine. Not to mention ...

I have the same truck. I'm also using a ProPride hitch to pull my 29' trailer that's over 8,000 loaded up. It's a great setup and I also use 2,000 pound airbags. I like the airbags because I do a LOT of driving when I'm not towing. I can't even t...
We have the same truck other than the motor. Power is not a problem for my EcoBoost. You're 5.0 has almost as much power. We are towing a Cougar 29BHS. It's 7,000 empty. I wouldn't go much heavier than that. I'm closer to 8,500 loaded up. If o...
