First trip out this year, weather was not great, but needed a shake down trip. Trailer pulls easy; do I know its back there, of course, but the truck has plenty of power for our needs. Next trip out will be in a couple of weeks to the coast. Hopefully I will get better photos. My wife loves the trailer, she too will not camp in a tent. And I like a few comforts myself. The trailer is a 2012 FunFinder X-210UDS, great for 2 people, probably too small for a family.

Edlee1945-YourFunfinder is a unit on my short list. Any problems? Warranty? Manufacturer. Been longing to see a thread like this. Got the F150 to haul a small trailer. Forty years of tent camping were fun, but time for comfort. TIA

I drive a Raptor SCrew with a max towing of 8000 lbs. Any suggestions on what brand/model of TT to get? I have been looking for awhile I would like something under 5000 lbs so I will have room for cargo. I don't really like tent trailer or hybrids.

your biggest issue is going to be the super soft o/r suspension. might have to bag it up or something

With less than 300 miles on it, my new F150 and our PUP on the way to the lake this weekend. Towed great, didn't even know it was back there.
