Yeah it's going to have to do until winter, then I can upgrade. It's a 2011 so it is rated @ 8100#'s with a payload of 1440. I've hauled more than that with it, but this will be slightly longer than my equipment trailer(3 Feet). Thank you for the info though.

be careful because you are still way over your gcwr which is what DOT will hold you too if you get scaled or into an accident. I hope you have a Hensley arrow for that. Remember this also has more frontal area than your equipment trailer making this a tougher tow. I learned a lot of this the hard way myself with over 20 yrs of twing horse trailers and then learning just how different an rv handles. My old TV was an armada, the TT was under tow capacity by 2000 lbs and over payload by 200 lbs. Handling sucked. I think you will find yourself either upgrading your TV earlier than planned or parking your TT until you can upgrade. Whatever you end up doing, I wish you the best of luck.Edited by: anaro

Sorry for Hijacking the topic, thanks again for the info. I will be telling the dealer to keep the Reese WD, the HA looks like a better solution. I will order one tomorrow.

Thanks,
WW
