Hey folks glad to be part of the forum.
my wife and i just picked up a 2013 346lbq. TV is 2012 F350 CC SRW KR 6.7, load level bags with wireless air adjustment, B&W turnoverball & B&W 5th wheel hitch.
This is our first 5er. Towing home we bounced a bit on the transitions on bridges, but otherwise ride was good. Ran 70psi in bags. Once when semi passed trailer whipped a slight bit. We where going 65mph so likely overspeed was the issue. Fords built in sway control never detected it, but we felt it very slightly.
We had to lock out 6th gear in the hills, but truck held 5th gear on all hills after that. 13.7 mpg over the 115 mile trip home.
The specs on pin weight weight were way off! Unloaded with hitch installed drive axle is ~3240 and with empty trailer it was ~5830! So the specs said 2250 pin, but it's closer ~2600 pin. Has second AC so maybe that's part of it.
Execpt for one propane tank being empty, a door catch needing adjusted, and the entry door latchs being a bear to open it's trouble free so far. Fingers crossed
Planning to hit the driveway campground this weekend. I ordered up maxair vents x4 and a vortex fan for front bath since it wasn't a power vent. The other three are power already.
Working to get a Honda eu6500is to power it. I have to make a box the same size as the genny and do some backup tuning to ensure it won't hit front cap when placed in bed in front of hitch. I do a few weeks a year where genny is the only power avail so I really hope it fits.
Speaking of turning I seem to not need a slider with my SB with the max turn cap on the 5er. I was going to go with B&W slider when they release it in apr, but don't think I'll need it.
I think the next truck will need training wheels though
. DW will wait on her washer/dryer combo as that is located directly above hitch and those dudes are heavy.
Anyway I wish it had the gen 2 easy remote, but it appears that was no longer offered starting either this year or last.
See you guys on the road and in the camp grounds.
