Looks awesome-any chance you have weighed your set up? Curious as to how much payload you have? Seems like if I load up like that I will be way overloaded on payload/ gvwr. The 221 BH I bought has a large 10'6" slide that is 2/3 ahead of the axles, seems like thats the reason for the higher...

Did get it today and after a dinner in it in our driveway the floorplan is amazing. So functional with the kids able to play/ watch tv while we cook etc... It does seem to have a slight issue with the slide after hauling it home- the thermostat is on the exterior of the bathroom wall where the...

So I picked up the new trailer today (Keystone passport sl 221bh). In summary I am relatively pleased with how the JT handled the load, and the whole family especially the kids love the camper, and after a dinner in the driveway inside it we are 100% confident we chose the right trailer...

Will be using an E2 wd hitch with 800lb bars, and already have a Curt Spectrum controller installed at the factory 12v location. Can’t wait to see how the truck does, I have towed 6k on my open utility trailer and was impressed other than the front end feeling light ( no wd hitch on that...

We decided to go with the 221bh. Im still concerned with the tongue weight, however we decided that with soon to be 3 children we really need the added floorspace and storage the slide gives. Basically we knew we would not be happy with the 219 long term. The exact trailer we bought has a dry...

2 Jeep, 2 engine family here- wife drives a JLU Sahara with the 2.0 Turbo e-torque, Jt Rubi pentastar for me. Honestly the diesel just isnt worth it to me. Already hearing of issues with the emissions system, especially if you live/ drive in the cold. Previous ecodiesel track record was...

Not the weight rating for the hitch tongue weight specifically, but both must be accounted for in payload capacity (along with anything/anyone else in the truck). Funny to think that you could easily exceed the hitch weight rating with bed cargo nearly over the hitch, but not exceed the payload...

Curious what the tongue weight is on your setup? Have found a better trailer option (passport sl221bh). However although it is only 5100lbs dry, the listed tongue weight is 685lbs. Rubicon max hitch weight is listed as 700lbs, 765lbs for a sport max tow. Is anyone paying attention to the max...

Would love one, but I don’t want to sell myself short on payload... again haha!

Great points, one of the main reasons we are looking at these specific floorplans is the double bunks that will easily sleep 2 kids each. I should mention our primary goal with this is not to have a massive trailer with living space to spend a significant amount of time in. We aren’t looking to...

Thank you! Looked at a few Jay flights yesterday- If I was going aluminum that would be my choice. I think the 4.10 gears in combination with the 8spd are a big help- we live on a large hill with steep grades that used to tax my 6.4 hemi pulling my tractor on utility trailer. My JT pulls the...

Thanks- exactly the numbers I’m going by. 80% of my tow capacity puts me at 5800lbs. Leaves about 500lbs for loading trailer before we have to take a second vehicle. My wife and daughters are a combined 200lbs soaking wet so that helps the payload a bit. That being said 5 years ago I bought a...

What are the weights etc... of what your pulling?

Rooftop tent was my original plan so I could still tow my fishing boat. But my 2 daughters (6 and 4) don’t do well in a tent, and a bathroom is pretty much a must (I’m highly outnumbered). My hope is to get something the JT can handle so I still have the truck for offroading etc... once unhooked...

My wife and I are looking at travel trailers for our family of 4 soon to be 5. After looking at several brands and layouts we have narrowed our search down to 2 models: Grand Design Imagine XLS 21bhe Dry Weight 4698 Tongue Weight 456 Length 24’ 11” Grand Design Imagine XLS...

Add me to the list of people looking for this type of rack. Would love a simple bolt on system that had different height options using the same base. Weight capacity doesn't need to be extreme on the taller racks. Since the truxedo elevate was pulled from the market I'm not aware of any height...

Not sure where some have gotten the idea that Jeep expected to/ needs to sell 200k plus Gladiators a year? Right from the start Jeep said production target capacity was 75-100k/year. Pricing is intentionally high compared to others in class because Jeep knows this is a niche product. If they...

They are my first MT’s, but my previous trucks all ran AT’s- including Grabber At2, Grabber ATX, Wildpeak AT3w, Wrangler AT Kevlar etc... I was expecting worse traction than those AT’s (most of which are sever snow rated)but so far I actually think they’re better.

Am I optimistic/crazy, or is anyone else surprisingly impressed with the factory Falken Wildpeak MT tires in the snow and ice? My JT and the factory MT’s have 15k miles on them- not new by any means. I didnt have much snow experience with the tires last spring, but have been super impressed...

In reading this (ridiculously flawed) article, as well seeing all the posts here and on fb related to towing one thing has become clear- Jeep needs to build a full size version of the Gladiator. The simple truth is the Gladiator is drawing in truck buyers who previously likely only shopped full...
