ℹ️About the episode:
In this episode, we hook up a 5th wheel for the first time. Although we found it to be even more streamlined than a travel trailer, the size and weight of the F450 tow vehicle combined with the toy hauler makes it nerve-wracking. In other words, there are new sounds and methods to get used to - and exactly why we wanted to change rigs. After 161 episodes and over 200 videos focusing on travel trailers, it was time to learn (and share) something new. While we still have both boys with us, now was the time for a 5th wheel toy hauler. We don't know what's next. We don't even know if this plan is sustainable, but there is only one way to find out.

![NOSFERATU - Official Trailer [HD] - Only In Theaters December 25](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/nulvWqYUM8k/mqdefault.jpg)
Found you by accident. Wow what a great family! Dude you are so blessed to have that beautiful hard working wife and any man that can back up an apartment building that well is truly a keeper.
Mark and Trish, You guys were the first full timers to inspire and teach me, and you continue to do so! Safe travels...
My Lord the new rig is beautiful. One nugget of information that you may already know comes from my 30 yrs driving semi trucks. ALWAYS check your 5th wheel every time you are all away from the rig any length of time. There are some really mean people that will unhook you just to watch it come off. Love your videos. God bless.
You're not the first to say this. It's unreal that this exisits.
I’ve seen a few trailers on the tires or ground due to some sad peeps. With a semi I always set the trailer brakes, pull against the trailer then set the tractor brakes. Nobody is pulling the fifth wheel release.
Keep Your Daydream put note on your dash to check the fifth wheel connection and write the height of the tallest part of your trailer.
THAT WAS PART OF MY TRAINING MANY YEARS AGO, TOO. GOOD HABIT TO HAVE
I drive truck for a living here in Canada and I totally agree as even up here we are not safe from idiots. There needs to be a new design on fifth wheels where it can be locked from inside the rig and no way to unlock from the outside.
Mark and Trish
My wife and I are so so happy for You and Family!!!!!
We are buying an RV very soon. Had RVed years ago when I raced with NHRA. Enjoyed it back then, even with all the towing and really only staying at the tracks for the most part.
Loved the short part at the end with the Grandpa and Grand Son. We have our first Grand Baby on the way. We really look forward to taking our Grandchildren as well!!!
God Bless Y’all and look forward to meeting you one day soon.
Beautiful...that thing is massive. Congratulations. Gotta love Fort Wilderness. I know all of you enjoyed the frenzy. Safe and happy travels.
Ain’t it great being a Dad . Camping with your kids is the best. We have so much memories when we started camping 32 years ago. All the boys and my daughter are now married with their kids doing the same thing we did. I like your show. Keep up the great work
Toy Ginger!
Change is an opportunity for growth.
I hope Grand Ginger has many more adventures ahead of her. It is a great rig. I very well may end up with one myself!
That last scene was awesome. Grand Ginger in the background one last time with Toy Ginger overtaking it and moving on.
George and Louise Jefferson...Movin' On Up!! Congrats to you all!
k killian indeed they are.
I felt all of the excitement that I'm sure you all had during this process. So incredibly happy for you guys!
Long time no talk. Good to hear from you.
Awesome nothing better than the jitters of hooking up the first time. Congratulations.
....And Another Season/Adventure Begins! Thanks so much for sharing your time, knowledge, what you've encountered/experienced as you travel; I look forward to tuning in to see what's ahead as you guys roll along! Just guessing, but I would think this new setup you have would be better suited for spaces out West. More open, larger areas, (think Utah, Wyoming, etc.) than in the Eastern part of the States...will stay tuned to see it all unfold! Thanks again KYD Peeps!!!
What a long week it has been to wait to watch. We had a 45 foot 5th wheel and walkie talkies help with parking. We are getting a new one this fall can't wait.
Yes, a long wait. Lol.
OHHHH CONGRATULATIONS ON "TOY GINGER" ~ love the name !! Oh yes Marc it SO IS like moving an apartment lol!!! We just sold our 44 foot "apartment on wheels" downsized to the Solitude 310GK, we found too many places we wanted to go but just either couldn't fit in or tired of paying the "oversized rig" prices. I am REALLY REALLY excited to see where you travel too! :)
Before I even watch this, I’ve literally waited all week just to see what you guys bought! So excited! Now to watch...
That is one BIG toy! Oh my word. For some reason at the end when you were driving and all of a sudden the 'toy' stayed in the same direction and the truck turned it just seemed even bigger and like the truck wouldn't pull it. Seeing the truck used for pulling this makes you realise how people using them for every day life and just sticking some shopping in the back is totally overkill! Yay for the new deck and puppy hose outlet! So excited to see all the new things.
I put all my kids' measurements on a length of wood trim. It moves when I do. Now, my grandkids' measurements are on the back of the same wood trim! My youngest kids are 21 and the oldest is 32. . . so that is how long I've been doing this! My kids and grandkids love looking at it after all these years. What memories!
When it's time for the next generation, flip it end for end and start again. 👍😉
Sheila Sieber great idea. We also use a 1x4 painted like a ruler and it gets attached to the wall so we can take it with us.
Hello long time since I made a comment lol The longer the rig the more easy it is to reverse. The reason for this is because the turm moves alot slower and more easy to correct. A top tip for people who drive something like this as you reverse, is if in your mirror and the rig moves out in that mirror steer to that mirror. In my younger days I was a female truck driver with very long rigs. love to u guys xx and your new rig is amazing.
Beautiful!! I cheated & watched the video before my husband got home!! I couldn't wait!!🤪🥰
I just did the same thing on my wife. LOL We're so bad 😜
That is a beautiful combo. Looks like the exhaust pipe on the generator hangs very low and the sewer line hangs pretty low as well. Always before/after hitching check to make sure that the tailgate is in the down position and that it is closed before you attempt to move the whole unit out from the parked position. I have seen many bent tailgates in my travels. Trish is so small in the 5th wheel :)
Great Job backing it up...I drove for years and I still don't like to blindside!
Wow. The new rig is amazing. You all inspired my family to start RVing. We watch all your episodes together. Thanks for the nudge we needed to start.
Congrats on the new rigs, Now that you have a 5th trailer one very important thing to watch out for when pulling in or out or making turns is the TAIL SWING ( the back of trailer from back axle swings out) I am a truck driver 25 years otr I hit and dragged a pickup that was parked on the right side and when I made the left turn the tail a trailer scraped along the side of truck the hooked the cab of it and pulled it 10 feet before letting go I didn’t even feel it repair cost to pickup was 4 thousand. So be careful of that and keep it in your mind of it. In your video you can see it from the back. Safe Travels to y’all enjoy your new rigs.
I've been waiting all week. So excited to see your new rig. Thanks for inspiring us. My wife and I bought a 2019 Heartland Northtrail 31QUBH this year and we love it!!
My Wife and I are so happy for both of you’s and your young family. We both love your new Truck and Fifth Wheel and color colors are similarly ours. Our Mobile Suites DRV 44’ Nashville fifth wheels paint was special ordered and where yours is black ours is a dark grey with dark blue and lighter shades of grey. But of course a different design. We didn’t plan on towing our fifth wheel much at our age so we had sold our tow vehicle only to wish we hadn’t. We were so fortunate we found a 2012 Freightliner business class 4 wheel drive M2 Sport chassis- dark grey - it matches or fifth wheel great with only 26,790 original miles. Its Engine is a cat. 7.2L Engine with only 380 HP but 1,980 foot pounds of torque. It also has air over hydraulic disk brakes and air ride suspension. Can you tell I am very pleased LOL yes I sure am. My tow truck that I was going to tow our fifth wheel I had sold we had never actually taken delivery of it and someone purchased it site unseen for much more than we were going to pay for it because of such a time wait on them. My wife and I had sold our ranch - our boat and our company to live in our fifth wheel full time but now we are going to travel a bit. We have been married 51 years now and on our honeymoon we rented a pop up trailer and we have been camping or RVing sense. If we hadn’t had our company to run we would have hit the road with our 3 kids just like you are doing now. But we have 3 grandkids that can go with us now even though they live in Michigan we can always fly them into to a town near we will be at. I subscribed to your channel and my wife and I are so excited to watch a young couple do what we always dreamed of through your eyes and videos.
Thank You so much oh and I am subbed to the channel with such a nice gentleman that helped guide you into your nice Ford F450. Cheers did I say we are happy also it’s never to late unless you lose your health or your six foot under.....
Fantastic video! I kind of want to cry a little bit as you say goodbye to Grand Ginger! So many great memories! But CHEERS to new memories and learning opportunities in Toy Ginger! Stay safe, friends!!❤️
Trish looks so tiny in Toy Ginger! Think you need to rename it to GG : Giant Ginger!!! Thanks for helping me keep my daydream ❤️
Love Christine Big Toy Ginger BTG
Well it’s a toy hauler. Makes me wonder where they got the name toy from?
That thing is an absolute monster! You have ARRIVED! We are small time R-vers, 23' toyhauler, but we take your advice whenever we can! Cheers!
Congratulations!! Been waiting all week to find out what you picked 😄. Love your new rig. ❤ Enjoy & safe travels
Congrats on the new rig. Soo much easier to pull and turn and back than a TT IMO. May you have many blessed and fun filled miles all the while teaching all of us!
So happy for your family, awesome. With all your experience it is so nice to see legitimate excitement.
Have empathy for your happy experience . Looking forward to your adventure and see new experiences . Good luck and travel safe !
This is a dream of mine. Soon very very soon. We look forward to seeing you in OKC soon!
What a beauty! Very exciting and so much fun learning about and enjoying a new rig. Looking forward to the next.
You did well backing that beast, without being a professionally trained truck driver. Kudos!
You guys are making memories that you will absolutely remember for a life time, good for you guys. Good mom and dad!
Pretty sure I've seen each one of your videos. Hands down, this is the best one.
I have to give you a shout out at 10:37 the way you turn your wheels to get set up for the direction of travel when you are getting ready for reverse. It's rare that people do that. Instead, they come to a complete stop and then turn the wheels, scrubbing the tires on the pavement when they aren't in motion.
Fantastic! Congrats. We just upgraded our pop up to a Grey Wolf travel trailer.
lacrossed55's Review Bar you will love the full enclosure. Congrats
What a great final shot of the Momentum taking over the frame as the Grand Design fades further away. Nice work guys
Nice rig guys 👌👍. I'm impressed with your driving Mark. Great job for a first time fifth wheel driver. Enjoy your new setup !
Congratulations🎉. Love the longer video, when you were pulling out and leaving "Ginger" behind 😢. Good luck and safe travels exploring and sharing with the larger rig. Love the idea of someone living and sharing what the rig(s) are like😃👍🏽👏🏼. Let the adventure begin👍🏽👍🏽
Marc you handled that big boy like it was nothing. Great job. Love the new rig. 👍
Good job with your backing! I'm a truck driver, and I'm going to share some wisdom that a trucker gave me when I first started. He had been a trucker longer than I've been alive. Backing up is one of the most dangerous things you can do in a truck (or a rig like you have). Take your time, go slow, and to hell with everyone else. Get out and look as often as you need. Don't worry about holding people up. Also, be sure to take as much room turning as you need. That new rig is going to off track differently than your old one. Love your videos, and the new rig is beautiful. Don't get lost in there looking for the bathroom, lol😉😂
AMAZING! So excited for y'all. Trish, you did well with the storage containers. Get a step stool. We moved from a 19' travel trailer to a 25.5' Class A and I gritched for two weeks because all the storage is below! Think I've finally figured it out. I learned that I can't store chocolate in the sofa slide out in Oklahoma heat.
Absolutely love the new rig and the beautiful fifth wheel.. congrats mark and trish... enjoy! Next will be a beautiful class a motorhome once the kids are out! Woohoo.. loving the progression on the channel... you guys are truly living your best!
I agree with others as well, make sure you get a trucker gps now that your height and length are much greater...
I'm headed to Ft. Wilderness in a week. I know it is a little pricey but it is one of the nicer campgrounds I have visited. We just transitioned from a bunkhouse to a couples trailer. This will be our first vacation in many years without my boys. I was also a little sad when I sold my trailer. I have a lot of good memories of many trips all over the country. If you are still in KY, the Red River Gorge area is a wonderful place to hike. It is about an hour east of Lexington.
Congratulations, beautiful setup for a beautiful family. Stay blessed!
Love your rig. Congrats! Been watching you for a long time and finally subscribed. We've had several trailers and 5th wheels as our boys grew up. I loved our 5th wheel the best. Boys are grown and we just retired so we are starting our travel plans. Now we have a 24 ft trailer but living in it is small. Looking to upgrade and doing research again. Congrats again. God bless and safe travels.
Dig the leveling block sliding.... I can soo relate. Great video guys! Very jealous.
Thanks so much! NO ONE shows the awkward moments learning a new RV, and it was so nice to see how you deal with the situation. My family and I are preparing to go full time on the road, and the 397/399TH is high on our list, especially knowing that you can do a side deck on it! Thanks for the awesome, honest video.
So happy for you guys. And do not feel self conscious in the slightest, if you get sponsors to showcase their products. You are lifestyle and product influencers and just like business consultants and marketeers, you should be fairly compensated for your work.
I agree...make them give you products to demonstrate, and deal codes and scan box so you can get a commission for purchasers...and titles to rigs so u can sell them when finished...I bought my grand design momentum 399TH and got hooked on your channel all in same episode. Was looking at the momentum and keystone fusion but after seeing your organizational episode and walk through I was sold....extra bonus has been staying on to your channel and subscribing and starting back at the first episodes and working forward...God y'all were young then and the kids were twirps....what 6 years will do....crazy huh
FYI-I dropped my ToyHauler (15k ibs) 6 inches onto my pickup bed.....parking very slight incline on gravel...everything was slick....was raining....chocked the wheels before releasing pin....released pin....the whole rig slid with chocks and forward pillars slid off built up platform (chock) ....nice crease in truck bed......I now own those scissor chocks (recomended) that squeeze the wheels not to move. I replaced the OE F250 bed with a flatbed....love it
I knew as soon as I saw you looking at dualies that you were going to get a fifth wheel. Congrats.
I have a 2012 Keystone cougar which I saved for and it took me 4 years to do it. This my 2nd rig . I live in it full-time. I'm still learning all about it.
Toy Ginger. Like naming a hundred pound dog tiny. Congratulations. As always thank you for sharing.
augie bracero well it’s a toy hauler. So I wonder where they got toy from?
man, it was so emotional seeing grand ginger getting left behind... congrats ... love you guys and best of luck . your biggest fan from SAUDI ARABIA
As a former trucker the "S" turn technique is a good one that I'm glad you've learned. My rule of thumb was when the driver door hit my back in spot I steer out then when my trailer axles hit the back in spot I steer back ,but obviously that's dependent on the space you have. I'm sure other people have their own methods.
Love the specific tip. I'll keep honing the method.
Could also do the modified 45° set up to back. Easier to do then an ally back (90°).
I have to admit, I felt pangs of jealously and even anger at first! Then I remembered the 11th Commandment: thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's rig. By the end of the video I was cool with the idea of you guys having a rig bigger than Willie Nelson's tour bus.. You just added a whole new dimension of interest to your channel. Can't wait for the next video!
I'm not even into RV'ing, but I learn soooo much on this channel. Just smashed the up button, more plz.
Hi....I've been watching you guys on your journeys for awhile now but don't comment much, I can't believe how much change has happen over such a short time . It was sad to see ginger go but looking forward to all the new adventures to come in your new rig..:D
buy a Teflon washer to go between hitch and trailer king pin
will stop a lot of grinding on sharp turns
It was on there. The noises were coming from the suspension. Even Grand Ginger made those noises with the MORryde upgrade. I think its the U bolts turning.
You will want to find one made of Delrin (POM) Plastic. It is very abrasion resistant and self lubricants so no grease needed. Works great in this type of application.
Have used a lot of it over the years. A lot easier to machine and work with than UHMW and the like. The self lubrication is very important.
You are my favourite you tube family, I love how you come across as a normal family with teenage kids, so many “you tubers” edit their videos to make them look “perfect”, you don’t do that, you have two teenage boys and of course they would rather play video games than help move RV.
VERY COOL 😎 CONGRATS ON THE NEW DIGGS !! 💕 BIGLY HUGE WHEELS. GOD BLESS THAT HOUSE ! 🙏
I've had a popup, then different sizes of TT and now a 5er. I love the 5er. To me it's easier to hookup. My hubby usually doesn't go with us, so my sister have to do all the setup and take down. Life has been better since we switched. I hope you guys love yours and Congrats.
I’ve got the baby one of the momentum in the same color and love it, with a 17’ 450 in the magnetic grey like your old truck and yes air horns are a must on a 450 I’ve got them and love it! Great video good luck with your new rig, chad and Tara with changing lanes also have a momentum and really good up grades and content on campers check it out.
We have a 31 foot dutchman fifth wheel, I love watching you go through the same learning curve as we did on a fifth wheel
Paused at 13:35 to give a “triple axle thumbs up” for practicing on the blind side! Love the commitment to master the basics!!! Beautiful rig.
Instead of hitting “retract all” before hitching, hit the “hitch heights button. The back 4 jacks will retract and the front two will raise to the last height of your truck. After you are hitched, then use the “retract all” button to pick up the front jacks. The guys that do the walk throughs don’t really have a clue how these rv’s work. I bought a similar Momentum toy hauler from an Rv dealer in a different state and was given the same incorrect information about operating the jack system
Congratulations guys. You have been an inspiration to me and my wife. It is always joyful to watch you and go along in all your experiences.
Yay! Toy hauler! My fav! We loved ours! I will never do anything but toy haulers again!
Okay you guys !! I am as Excited as you are !!! What a RIG !! Great start on 5th Wheel maneuvering ,, Even the blind side !! Marc you did it like a PRO ! I have been sitting on the edge of my chair waiting to see Momentum 399TH. It is Beautiful !! But, not as beautiful as you all ! Have a FUN and Safe trip.. Stay Healthy and Happy... Following you along and, enjoying the trips with you. ;) Did I say I'm Excited ? Ha ! I AM !
You're way too kind. You can stay :)
Amazing truck and rig combination!! Congrats to ya! I have to say I would never trade after the boys go to college... they will come back and you will need the extra space again .. 😂
I like your videos, letting people know this is a show for rv’ers to let them know the difference in all kinds of rvs . Did not like your helper standing under Trailer when backing up, not safe, seen to many people jump the fifth wheel. Overkill is putting a lock instead of pin in your fifth wheel lock. But that’s what I do. When backing , keep the wheels rolling even if slow just keep moving. Most people keep there rv of choice ( going on four years, 2017 forest river Cardinal) . Longer, but I like the idea, it keeps the show fresh. showing a GOOD pretrip/circle check inside and out is a must my wife has us do. She has a printed spreadsheet with list of outside for me, inside for her, leaves nothing to chance. Never pull out without walking behind truck, check pin , make sure it’s locked .you would not believe how many times I’ve seen it done , a pin seemed to have locked but on the wrong ,amateur and professional. Alike. Again,good luck with new rig, will be watching .
Gotta love the "evil Dad" moment... should be more of a habit for ALL the Dads! Nice job backing that building in...gee what were you thinking? Guess I will have to wait until next season for the class A...lol
Congrats Marc and Trish! Welcome to the Fifth wheel club! Enjoy your new toy! Learn all you can about your fifth wheel. I've had mine for a year and a half now and still learning new things about it. One tip I have you is when you are doing your auto leveling while setting up, either do the whole process on battery power or hook up your main power then auto level. I had to learn the hard way: while my rig was auto leveling on battery power, I decided to plug it in and it messed up my auto leveling with errors. Then you have to hook back up to the truck and reset your auto leveling to work properly. Other than that, I love mine!! I have a Montana High country 305RL! I hope to travel the states very soon!
Wow Wow Wow! Sooo gorgeous & sooo BIG!!! I had the nervous jitters just watching this video...as if I was getting ready to drive with that monster....whew....I could never:) Congratulations & wish you all the best of luck with it!!!
Nice :)
If you decide to turn your "Learn Mode" in the direction of hitches, check out the Anderson Hitches. We swapped out our Reese 16K Titan for the Anderson Hitch. Such a smooth ride. We pull our Cedar Creek 29IK with our F350 which also has the puck system fitted. The hitch lifts in and out really easily and only weighs 35lbs. Copes with 4,500lbs tongue weight, but might not pull your trailer weight.
Congrats on the truck !
Much to my wife's amusement, I spent the last few seasons shouting at the TV because you bought an F250 instead of the F350, and then found you were limited on weight when it came to the Grand Ginger purchase. We were tempted by the F450 for the DRW and the turning radius, but we do not full-time, so we went for the convenience and the ride of the F350 SRW, and avoided those 19.5" commercial tires. Anyway, glad you got a proper truck now ! :)
If you are anywhere near Kananaskis Country, Alberta, Canada in winter 2019/2020, we'll be there !
Been waiting for this one. Good luck!
My husband and I drive separately, me driving a F150 with a small utility trailer and my husband driving the F450 with our 40' Montana. A few days ago, I had to move the rig by myself to another location through some Colorado mountains. You will be happy with the power on the F450 and the turning radius. I also found that backing the fifth wheel was easier than my little utility trailer.
Love the rig! Since it’s your 3rd rig and it’s a Momentum, what about “Mo Ginger”. Or you could just say Mo Ginga. 😂
I 2nd Mo Ginger...
Last weekend we were at a state park in Mi and were parked right next to your rig! Well not YOUR YOUR new rig but an identical one! We talked to the owners a few times and they absolutely love their rig, they love it so much that they sold everything they had and now live in it full time! We were camping for the first time in our new rig and well I have to say it was rather funny, I would say Trish said this then hubby would say Mark said this or that and then do you remember that episode where they ........OH YEAH.. So we have decided to name our rig MarknTrish because no matter where we go you are right there with us! Now we can't wait for someone to ask...are you MarknTrish? lol. Great Rig you guys!
We left on vacation Saturday, which was a driving day as was today. The whole time I was driving I was anxiously awaiting this video to see the new rig - wow, not messing around! Beautiful truck & TH!
Congrats! Marc couldn't agree more on the blue, black, silver and white color scheme! Waited to pull the trigger till we found it ourselves.
Congrats guys, Love the 🎨 paint.
🌈Happy Trails!
Wow! What an undertaking. I got a little teary about Grand Ginger. Love your family's fun attitude about everything. Looking forward to seeing this next chapter with your beautiful 5th wheel!
Congrat's, always do a tug test before driving off. Awesome looking rig
Myles Hansel tug test?
@@hosspokertilt1 before pulling the landing gear all the way up, you bring them up a few inches and then apply trailer brakes and tug to make sure you're hitch is locked.
There is such good information in just the first 5 minutes of this video that I wanted to thank you. I hopped on and went over to Etrailer and found exactly the information and likely the hitch for a 5th wheel we are considering. Thank you all very much!
Love it! Congratulations!!👍👏👏 Plenty of room for a dog! 😁 Would love to see you guys share your daydream with a Rescue pup!
They started this channel bringing up a beloved older dog along with them, so know all too well what having a dog in an RV requires.
A good tip on going in backwards , when you are getting your eye in , try to imagine the line you would take to get out and try to put your rig in that position first , that way you are spot on to go back in one shunt 😉 It sounds more complicated than it is , after a while you won’t look at any situation of going backwards any other way , it just comes naturally 😉👍
Wow those stability jacks are like a spacecraft putting down landing gear :)
That was pretty awesome!!! Very stoked for your family. So I heard you say you want to experience different rigs. Do you thing you guys would be interested in doing a overlanding rig season next? And getting a little bit more off the grid. Since you like Fords as much I do, it would be a perfect time to see what the new Bronco will do. I figure a roof top tent on the vehicle and one on a pull behind. Kind of like what “Epic Family Road Trip” picked up. I just think you can give a great Day Dream SPIN to this growing lifestyle
I'm a trucker, make sure if you haven't already, to get a trucker gps, it will keep from low bridges
We've been using TruckMap. That's the one we like best so far.
Keep in mind that the more degrees you turn the truck, it is much harder on the suspension components. It puts pressure on the shackles, spring mounts and hardware. A lot of people have had issues with the shackle bolts with the lube (zirk) fittings on them snapping and if you look at the suspension and tires while jack knifing the trailer into place. Take a look and be aware. Nice rig!
I’ve been waiting all day👍 the front porch I knew it 👍👍
Did you get a base line empty weight on your way from the dealer to the campground? And getting loaded weight once you get the toys? Speaking of that what kind of toys?
Jesus is going to rescue His followers very soon. Find Him quickly and turn from sin.

Great looking rig and congratulations on it. I would also like to commend you on your backing skills. With that said I would also like to add a word of caution. it appears that this is your first tri-axle and even though the 450 can cut it to a 90 degree turn pretty easy you should really refrain from that if possible. If you note at the 14:40 point there is a substantial axle side stress turning that tight. I know there are times that it is really needed, but I do everything I can to keep my super tight turns to a minimum. Once again, great looking unit and happy camping..
That is one big rig! I will say the turning radius on the 450 is impressive. Great and informative content as always : ).
Great choice on rig, almost bought 328M but decided on another. We just moved from tow behind toy hauler to 5th wheel toy hauler. Very happy with many of same options you have. Island for kitchen especially neat.
Love the “be aware of yourself and the rig” mom talk.
I understood , what you were talking about when getting ready to back . I always turn the truck to get the rear of the trailer in the direction you're backing. That makes easier to back. I hope thats what you were talking about pointing the nose of your truck. It's a beautiful rigg the two of you have.
Shew,that is one big rig..Now you have to really pic and choose where you stay. Love the channel, be safe.
