Took out the new trailer this weekend. We used to tow a Forest River Wildwood 25 foot trailer. It was supposed to be about 1500 pounds light than the Mountaineer. You sure wouldn't know it by the way it towed!
The Mountaineer towed easier, went up hills faster, and swayed less! Of course, we did upgrade the hitch (Equalizer). What I do not understand is the way a heavier rig went up hills easier and handled and stopped better. I was really concerned before going out, but now all of my worries are dissolved. Wow!!!
