hi. bumper pull travel trailers, that is the whole forum. pickups and SUVs pulling something with a coupler on the tongue. fifth wheel and motorhome folks can read along, there are bigger places for your questions.

where things go. Trailer talk: the trailer and living in it, seals, roofs, tanks, furnaces, floorplans, campground stories. Tow vehicles and hitching: the truck and everything from the receiver to the coupler, payload, hitches, sway, brakes, scale tickets. Buying and auctions: the money side, dealers, private party, repos, auctions, paperwork.

the rules fit on a napkin. name your truck and your trailer when you ask something, the answer changes with the truck. real numbers, what you paid, what the scale said. nothing for sale inside threads, and there is no classifieds board coming. dealer, transport or auction employees say so up front. go easy on the new people, every one of us started in a tent with a wet sleeping bag.

i move posts. a towing argument that breaks out in a buying thread ends up in the tow board and i will leave a note saying where it went.

accounts are by request until the bots calm down. use the contact page, tell me what you pull and where you camp.

nice to have a board that is just bumper pulls. we have been dragging a 2018 Flagstaff Micro Lite 25BRDS between Brainerd and Mesa for eight winters and the big forums bury us under the diesel pusher crowd. one request kelly, a sticky somewhere for the MN state park reservation window dates, people ask every spring.

good idea, i will put the reservation window in the about page for now and make it a thread once there is something to discuss. we are at 30 something members after five days. keep sending people.

This thread is locked. Questions about the rules go through the contact page.
