Well we made it home loaded up the trailer then dropped it off at indoor storage. We leave Friday for its maiden voyage.
Here's a pic all hooked up and ready to go home.

That is a sweet looking truck and trailer!! Do you have a WDH on that? Your headlights are going to reek havic on cars in front of you unless you can bring the front end of the truck down. Man I sure want that truck!!

congrats and some advice

Diesel,
I have same set up almost, 303tg 2012 and ford 250 2011. I use equalizer hitch and my nose is lower, give it a try, it's cheap and tracks better.

Advice;
Also, NEVER leave the wardrobe door open next to the kitchen before you open the kitchen slide out! ask me how I know......
Do the bathroom mod to add heat, takes less than a hour and gives a nice morning feel while reading the sports.....
I changed the bed to regular queen sized pillow top bed, fits really well......
The water pump is behind the wood in the front cargo hold on the slide out side...

Have fun, it's a super nice unit....

heat mod

Found heat mod on the outback mod site. Basically, you open the heater door under the frig, take off one of the covers on the left or right side, add a 2inch collar and then run a plastic heating tube under the bathtub and into a nice new vent cover that aims at you on the toilet...sounds complicated, but it was REALLY easy to do and really helps on those early morning cold days.....
