We live in Moscow, Idaho, and we'd been looking at fifth wheels for a long time. We finally bought a 2011 Chevy 2500 diesel in November, and last week we at long last purchased a 2011 Montana 2055RL which we will pick up in Michigan in the spring (May, probably). Can hardly wait!

We have never pulled anything longer than a 12' Jayco tent trailer, so will have a LOT to learn. I'm starting to make a list of equipment we'll need to get, so will be looking from all sorts of ideas from experienced people.

The dealer will give us 4 days or so at their free campground to familiarize ourselves with our new rig, and will give us the basics of towing and backing something that size, but I feel we need more detailed training to make us safe on the road. Any ideas in our end of the country?
