We recently purchased a 2015 Hurricane 34E. We have only owned 5th wheels until now. Many adjustments to make, especially downsizing!

I know what you're going thru! We spent 4 hours hauling stuff out of our 5th wheel today. Now to decide what will go in the nearly 6 foot and 2 slides less space. Oh well it was really time to lose some weight!

We went from a 31ft 5er down to our 25ft Axis. I was really surprised at how much I was able to fit into the Axis. Everything except the 5th wheel stuff and one lawn chair fit in the Axis.

Its like Tetris but just keep trying...it will fit

We went thru exactly the same thing! We took off @a week after we purchased. We're finding out all sorts of things as we go along. This is an adventure for sure.

Hi peeps,
We need your input. We traded our standard trans. toad for a Chevy Equinox. In doing so we had to purchase a braking system. We bought the Brake Buddy Elite 3. Twice the brakes on the Equinox locked up while we were towing. We sent the Brake Buddy back and they tell us there is nothing wrong with it. Has anyone else had this problem? What braking system do you use and are you happy with yours? Y'all are always full of information and we appreciate your input.
