flwanderer....your HD fits in that with room enough? Also how is the angle when loading? I have a HD ultra and looked at that trailer before but question how loading would be.

That is a real nice looking rig. I like the back sitting area with big window, if I was to buy another rig it would not have the rear kitchen but a setup more like that one.
You don't load too much in your rig, I see its empty weight is about 7800 lbs., the pin weight is up there I see, but I ain' the WP.

I've bought a new or used car and new or used camper each year for the past 4 years, everytime they get more expensive and bigger...she says no more but we'll see...

Thanks, we go to the beach a lot for only a couple of nights at a time so we do travel light. The campground we go to, the campsites back up to a bluff about 100' above the beach so you get a nice ocean view out the back window.
With the RCSB you have a shorter wheel base and about 8% of the pin weight actually goes to the front axle. I'm under all weight ratings except the GVW but I'm only over 200#'s or so. The RCSB handles the trailer very well. With the extra weight on the front I don't get the front end "floating" feeling so the truck is solid, even in stiff crosswinds. I'd considered upgrading to a 3/4 ton but after 7-8 trips with the Tundra I'm going to keep her.

Sounds like it handles the load as good as the DC longer wheel based tundra's. Good to hear!!

Weighs: I can't remember. A lot. It's posted in one of the other weight threads.
Difficulty or issues towing: none at all.
There are no 3/4 ton trucks in my future. Anyway, the truck payload is over 1,500 lbs, isn't that three quarters of a ton?
