Ordering the Suite with the 2" frame riser. TV is a 2017 F450.

Planning on using the Curt Q24K hitch because is has a lot of vertical height adjustment (13-17") and fits the Ford puck system. Looked at the TrailerSaver TS3, but $2795 plus $600 for the Ford puck adapter, plus shipping, plus 400lb weight....maybe a future upgrade when the budget recovers.

Looking for comments/reviews/suggestions from those who have real-world experience with the Trailaire on these very heavy rigs. Bottom line...would you choose that option again?

Thanks in advance!
We are getting ready for our first trip with the 2017 F450 and the DRV. We are happy with the TS3 and currently have 7" or clearance in the front and 5" in the back near the tailgate. I would like a little more clearance and and have talked to Rob Kolean at MorRyde about that. The DRV is slightly nose high and I do not have the risers (yet). Good luck with your new setup.

Don
