That’s so great. I’ve been wanting to do a western trip for years. Hopefully someday soon. The JK trailer combo looks awesome. Glad to know surge brakes work well over mountain passes as well.

Excellent!! I'm about to haul my M101A2 camper on a 2-week 3500+ mile trip from south LA to NW WY, then camping back through CO. My F250 diesel should have no problem either.

The poor guy bringing my M1078 from Florida had a blow out in Kansas and said boy the truck is heavy! He also just went 3400+ miles should be here in the morning with it. Glad they did not drive my rig that far! Always wanted to do trip like yours. I have crossed the USA several times but in a car once and a train twice. Did hitch hiked the West Coast once in the 70's. Back Pack and my Lab Zorro!

Its definitely fun. Blow outs suck. I'm a retired cross country truck driver. I miss the open road.

Least it was not a steer tire one of the duals on the trailer. I did not do long haul but spent up to 72 days at a time inmy Water Tender sleeping in my Cabs sleeper! It was not so bad you get used to it after a while.
