The best results are gained when you weigh each tire position and the consider the heaviest weights in your total computed figures on the spreadsheet to make sure all tires and axles are loaded within limits.

rickeieio Posted March 15, 2016 Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 Carl, We had a somewhat similar situation a few years ago. When we bought our first 5er, the one that looked like a horse trailer, we "retired" our old pop-up. It was a 1977 Apache, heavy for it's size, and pretty much used up. Our daughters thought it would be nice if they could use it to take their own families camping, as we had in our early days of parenting. Susan and I had a sit-down talk, that resulted in my joining the Apache forum and running an ad for "Free to a Good Home". Two hours later, our problems were solved. I don't have to do the maintenance on TWO campers, rescue a bunch of kids 100 miles from home on Sunday afternoon, or fix whatever they "borrowed". Now we take our rig, which sleeps two, and rent them a cabin. Way cheaper in the long run.
