Hi I'm James I have a 2011 Keystone 292FWBHS Copper Canyon. I have a goosebox installed rather than a king pin which I love! I pull it with a 2012 F-250 Lariat crew cab short box. Have the 6.2 V8 gas, puls nice and no problems....Looking at putting airbags on my pickup with a duel controller compressor so I can run a line to my goosebox with a quick connect and the other line to control the airbags.

James, I just ordered a new trailer and am thinking of getting the goosebox. I see you also have a shortbed truck. Any problems with maneuverability and do you use the 4 inch extension ball in your gooseneck receiver or just standard ball.

I do use the 4 inch extension and I can turn pretty tight. bed length between brands is also different...I have a Ford so my bed is longer than a Chevy short bed...Also my 5ver's front cap is slightly recessed for more clearance. compared to when I pulled it the very first time with a b&w companion hitch I do have a better turning radius.
