We moved a lot of the storage weight to the rear storage, (under the king bed), in order to control pin weight of the entire unit.

Just something to consider.
Thanks you everyone for the awesome ideas. I think it's gonna all come together with each trip we take.
PeteMorris, we completely agree about storing more in the rear. We thought we were doing good by getting a camper that weighed less than our last one, but never realized the Hitch weight would be heavier due to the front kitchen.... ugh.
We really need a new truck to haul but sadly, last Fall the transmission went out and it had to be completely rebuilt. Too much money invested in it now. Scares the crap out of me to Haul now. Planning our first trip in a couple weeks.... it's gonna be stressful.... lol
