We have a 2017 Expedition 4x4 with an HD tow package. I have been reading up, but still confused on an appropriate size/weight. My husband was just going to go out and buy a trailer thinking it would pull pretty much anything up to 29 ft. :'( I kind of bust the bubble on that as I am a safety freak.
So, we have us, three growing kids, and three dogs, plus misc stuff. Let us round it to 1000 pounds, with all the animals, cooler, hunting guns, etc. That might be a bit over but I like to overestimate.
Does anyone have an estimate on the max weight we can very safely pull? I would stay totally under that. We will be taking it from GA to Northern KY, so through the mountains, and really only one trip as we will park it semi permanent.
Actually, now that I think about it, I plan to drive my own SUV seperately this trip, so I can take some weight off the above by taking my kids in my truck. Not sure I want them on the trip while he is driving the Tt for the first time. ;D
We are looking at every brand from 17ft-25ft total, including the hitch.
Also, do I out some of that stuff in the TT? Sorry, I have been reading but all this is so new and I am confused by the different weight jargon with the hitch, capacity, load, etc.
Thanks for ANY advice on a good TT. Even if you have a prefence...I heard they can leak alot.
