[VAC] Re: tow with fresh tank full-user guide???



Rusty,
 The main thing you need to know is your trailer weight and the tounge
weight. The latter must be AT LEAST 10% of the former, 12%+ is even
better. If your freshwater tank is in the front, it'll help in that
department, albeit at the cost of carring another 250# or so of weight.

These weights cannot be guessed at, you MUST use an actual scale, and
they must be taken when the trailer is ready for the road, with all your
stuff in it.
