    I recently took my travel trailer out for its maiden voyage. During our return trip, I unknowingly dragged my 7 pin cable. I’ve been beating myself up even though my salesman assured me this is not an isolated incident. I’m going to order those twist ties. Thanks a lot.

    I love these! Easily towable with our smaller cars over here...would sell well here. It's got what you need with a good designed interior for the minimum of what you really need...could live in there easily at a low cost. 10/10

    There has clearly been some considerable thought applied to you choice of things to incorporate into your TAB.
    Your tile panels around the sink area and extending around the living area were absolutely gorgeous and a significant improvement against unintended water ingress, whilst looking really good.
    Excellent choice to buy the off road wheel and tyre - before - you need it urgently, invariably whilst in the middle of nowhere!
    Your aluminium storage boxes were exceptionally good, and look fantastic, whilst adding practicality.
    I would definitely consider the purchase and concealed installation of a good quality vehicle tracking device!
    The horrible truth is that experienced and professional thieves would have absolutely no problems in stealing highly desirable campers like the TAB, and whilst it may be impossible to fully protect against them being stolen, a well concealed vehicle tracking device virtually ensures that the owner will get it back.
    Your cupboard slide out racks were excellent, and makes accessing things very much easier.
    Thank you fir sharing your excellent ideas.

      This one might be available......I can check, located currently in Eugene, Oregon. Tab is a good quality product and does cost more than others because of this. So those that own a Tab generally take care of it. Key is storage - where they kept it, weather in that area, how often they used it, maintenance done on it, etc. My thoughts:) If you are interested in this one, let me know.

I love having this extra safety feature when towing at highway speeds. I just have to remember to remove it when backing into a campsite. 🙂

    We have a 2019 T@B 320 Boondock that we've pulled enough to ware out a set of tires. Improper weight distribution is the reason for trailer sway. I've pulled our trailer in 50mph cross-wind with no problems. However, putting 4 gal of gas and 3 gal of water on the rear rack caused severe sway after crossing a dip in pavement on I-5🤐. I would not place any thing else on your rack with the spare tire there. We also lifted the back of our TV 1 inch higher ( Old Man Emu ) which improved the ride and allows the TV and trailer to both set level going down the road or trail.

    • @debradenton9626
      @debradenton9626 11 месяцев назад

      great information, we actually never had an issue with swaying, we have another video on bucking at very slow speeds and finally resolved that with a new brake controller. we always kept the original spare under the Tab towards the front and I think that helped with proper distribution and rarely do we tow with tanks full, always places to get water as we need it and are closer to destination as your right, water is heavy

    • @onefastcyclist
      @onefastcyclist 11 месяцев назад

      @@debradenton9626 I'm fortunate to have a 2019 ,which had the spare mounted just behind the Jack-e-up. However, they did mount the spare on the rear rack before that. In an effort to simplify production, later Boondock models are much more like the standard S model. If you do experience sway, simply lift your foot from the accelerator (DO NOT TOUCH THE BRAKES), Comely counter-steer. As the speed dissipates, the trailer will right itself and pull normal. The scare tactics to sell expensive and heavy devices often feature a driver who over-corrected , or applied the brakes to produce misfortune

  • @AstroNerd
    @AstroNerd Год назад

    Great video, thanks for posting. As potential new buyer it’s really nice to see how others have customized there T@Bs. I especially like the backsplash you put in as the great storage ideas. To access the rear cabinets, do you have to removed the soft sided bins? In the first part of your video I see you’re using JK 2 door and then a 4 door (couldn’t tell if is a JKU or JLU). The 2 door Jeeps are only rated to tow 2000lbs and that’s just the dry weight of the T@B. It might be the angle from which the video was being filmed but when the T@B was connected to the 4 door, it appeared to have quite some squat in the rear axle. Have you considered a weight distribution hitch or air bags to help level out the rig? Lastly, sorry to nitpick but the table is a Lagun table not Laguna (no A at the end) and the water system is Nautilus not nautical.

    • @rvtipsandbitsneverstoplear3895
      @rvtipsandbitsneverstoplear3895  Год назад

      Thanks for your reply. Our 2 Door Jeep is the anniversary edition, steel bronze bumpers and tons of upgrades, it includes a 3.72 axel ratio and can tow 3500 lbs. You’re right many only pull 2000 but this is rated 3500. Not sure what you are referring to on the bins on rear cabinets….Details are important, thanks :)

      @rvtipsandbitsneverstoplear3895  2 года назад

      Thank you. We tow with a 2 door and a 4 door Jeep Wrangler, but you need to make sure your gear axle ratio is >3.7 to get the 3500lb tow. 4 door wranglers by far are more comfortable for driving long miles just fyi. The cooler is no longer available, but similar is the arctic zone 22 x 15 x 14. Happy Camping!

Second, whatever you tow, try to stay only at 60-70% of tow ability….The tab is 2000 lbs so that versus the 3500lbs capability is fine. With the Jeeps, try to stay

      Back cupboards open up, if you roll your clothes you can fit alot. Also in the rear back is a storage area behind cushions.

      absolutely, but it is expensive and it ultimately takes up "space" in the tank, 5 gallon goes fast , just a tip we have learned :)

    shop installed the 7 pin, BUT be sure to make sure they connect the black wire to your Jeep battery, so when you tow, your trailer batteries are being charged, ...couple highly recommended products I got from learning, Brake controller (not all work the same, this one is great worth it) amzn.to/3naP1FS and a 7 pin tester - you can check to see if all wired right: amzn.to/3CdENsz . happy camping!
