I sure don't want to start a debate but this is gonna be an heavy ride with a quad in the bed.

Happy camping and drive safe

Not every has a sportsman 900 etc etc. My banshe was lighter than a trip to Costco.

IronJoce

Didn't say too heavy, just sais heavy ;-)

It will be close. The trailer has a dry tongue weight of only 575lbs. Just not sure what he has for payload with his max tow pkg or the weight of his quad? Good chance he might be fine..

At best he has a 7700 GVWR unless he has the HD pkg which would bump it up to 8200 minus the weight of the truck, pass gear etc. typically leaves us with ~ 1500-1800#

IronJoce

He sure doesn't have HD payload and a truck like this has ~1700-1750 payload capacity. (I know my previous truck was exactly like this!)

From my experience and the scale with many trailers/loads, we seem to always reach maximum weight on the rear axel way before GVWR.

That being said, the trailer is small so it's all good

How long is your trailer and what's it's dry weight? And how do you like the add on mirrors, I just bought a set and haven't taken them out of the box yet

It's a 27ft Bunk house. Dry weight is 4800lb and Gross is 7500. I LOVE the *****. Was very reluctant to purchase the add-ons but those dumbo ears they call towing mirrors for these trucks I just couldn't justify the look or the weight of them .

I've towed about 7 or 8 times with them last year and love em. They don't shake and mount tight on the stock mirrors. The only downside I had with them is that they scuff the chrome on the back of my mirror. I got the detail shop to add some 3m onto the inside of the mirrors so that's taken care of now

brigs

Could you post a picture of what you did with the 3m, I have been thinking about what to do about that, don't want to scratch my painted mirrors

Sure, I can do that this week. THey're in the trailer so will need to take another run out there. Give me a chance to drop some stuff off anyway.
