Ummm....make that 385/900 Cummins. Darned fat fingers.

And yes, David, yours is bigger than mine.

Pulling safely depends on the person and their equipment and all of us here are safe but I really have to question this guy. I took this pic in downtown Chattanooga a few months back:

Yeah, that looks like a little much. Probably a 3000 or 5000 lb hitch on that Class C, and way over his GCWR I suspect, if not GVWR.

Maybe the other trailer is for his inlaws.

Could be. There's no tag on the Class C.

We just got the date our new MS 40KSSB4 goes on the line. It starts on 12/7. We are really excited and can't wait for it to get done. We special ordered it with several customizations through Rolling Retreats. We have our current SOB trailer sold and are waiting for the new one to start traveling again.

There is a bag full of manuals that come with the coach. As each component has a manual. What in particular are you looking for? If there is a specific component, you could Google the make and model and you should find a manual online.

You might have better luck posting your request as a standalone thread in the appropriate forum. Your 2001 Wanderer Wagon is not a DRV product.

I guess I did not show a pic of our combo so here it goes. Even has the weak 865 TQ.

HEY... I'd still like to get together👍. We own property in Cleveland TX and could travel from there to meet up.. what you think?
