Smile 1st tow 33.5' Rockwood

Pretty new at this forum stuff so be patient with me. Finally took my 33.5 foot Rockwood trailer for a 50 mile tow on I-95. Spectacular!

Titan XE KC with little tow and Century topper...Equal-izer hitch 1000#, Prodigy brake controller, extention mirrors. Took 2 hours to get the hitch set up right and set the brakes.

Break in is 50 mph for first 500 miles of towing. but it kept creeping up to 65 with tow/haul mode and 4th. Temperature gauge never budged...94 degrees outside. Big semis blew by me and no sway at all! Just seemed like it wanted to run and I had to hold it back.

Trailer weight is 5970 dry and I figure close to 7000 wet with full water, propane, and all the other gear.

Leaving next week for Rochester, New York, so will have more to say after that trip..........Floridatitankid
