I have a 2014 Camplite 16TBS(twin bed slide), and the tow vehicle is a 2014 Ram 1500 4X4 crew cab. The camplite was brought home to northern NM mountains in early january, but my wife and I have yet to do a shake down trip.  Weather, and other issues involved, but it is all organized and ready to go.

We have owned several RV's over the past 30 yrs, including Class A,Class C's, 4X4 trucks with campers, and Sportsmobile 4X4 custom camper van.  Love back country, but getting to an age that creature comfort and a bit more conservative travel.  This is the first travel trailer, and we do  anticipate that it can negotiate some level of national forest road travel. Travel will be with two standard partipoodles (Brown & white) Clyde, 80lbs and Bonnie, 60lbs. Both good campers.

Looking forward to the travel trailer experience, Wayne

Welcome Wayne.  Glad to see you got the email issues worked out!

Love your tow vehicle (I have a 2009 Ram Quad cab).  What engine are you using?  My 4.7L Ram tows the 21BHS like it wasn't there.  Your tow vehicle will be great.
