Let me introduce you to Ramblin' Rose. She is a 1968 Holiday Rambler Aluma Frame travel trailer. Still in mighty fine shape for her age. flic.kr/s/aHBqjBAT8t |

Hi and welcome. I can sense your excitement! I repaired your album link in your initial post. It's now working. I look forward to seeing what you can do with this. I like the design of that period. I was skimming through your album and noticed this photo of your Dodge pulling the trailer. flic.kr/p/2q5sBN7I noticed quite a bit of sag at the hitch. I am also surprised given that it's a newer truck. I would have thought that it would appear more balanced. Anyone else on the board want to comment on the sag? Does this trailer need a weight distribution hitch? What's the tongue weight? Though, for all I know, the trailer just has a lot of tongue weight. Rod |

There does seem to be a sag with the trailer nose down and the truck low in the rear... air bags on the truck will help as well as a higher ball mount.
Depending on the truck tow capacity, a load leveling system may help in this situation. I would talk to local RV people on what they recommend.
