I use the Reese Stediflex and really like how it works. I think the key is not so much about the brand or type, it’s about hitch set up and paying attention to how you’re loading the weight inside...

It is getting harder to find good melamine dinnerware these days. We have a set that my wife inherited from her grandma almost 25 years ago that is, for the most part, still going strong.

Yes, yes it is.

Truth is, with a 1950's Cummins supercharged diesel and an era correct HD transmission with straight cut gears, not many people have the skills these days to even drive it. The...

Smallest I've ever towed with was a Dodge Dakota V8. If I kept the load light, balanced load right, and used an EQ hitch - it wasn't too bad. My '79 F250 did much better, but my wife was not thrilled...

Placard on my E-350 van says 55 front 80 rear. If I'm not towing, I'll back them down to 65-70 if I don't have much cargo.

I've got a no-name round bar WD hitch with Husky brand friction sway controls. I tow with a V-10 powered E-350 van that I used with our last trailer and had very little sway problems.
