I'm assuming that backup camera is on the back of your camper, correct?... Did you have to use a signal booster for signal travel that far?.... Could you give information of that backup camera?.... Brand and model number??.... Thank you.
@maurob11853 жыл бұрын
Yes that is correct!. The trailer is wired to to provide power to the camera, and it sends the signal to the monitor via wireless. No signal booster needed but there is about a 3 second delay. I only use it to see what's going on behind me , but I think is useless to completely back up the trailer with it, i don't feel is safer than using the mirrors and a spoter. Here's is the link to it, and I do t know if the more expensive cameras have that delay also, I just don't see myself paying over $100 for a camera that doesn't get use as much. www.amazon.com/dp/B07FKJDF1Z?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Ahh a video of the same exact truck I bought towing a travel trailer. Looks like your trailer weighs more than the one I may buy too so that makes me feel better about towing one. Does the rear dip at all? Looked pretty straight. Been wracking my brain around the whole payload capacity though and afraid I’ll be over with my family in the truck lol. What is your payload capacity? My sticker says 1322 and then there is another sticker telling me to deduct 158lbs. I’m guessing the step boards and spray on liner are the reason. Thanks for any advice or info.
@maurob11853 жыл бұрын
My payload is 1320 lbs. The tongue weight of the trailer is 710 lbs so I have 610 lbs for passengers and cargo, not much lol but we rode with 5 people in the truck and it rode better than when is just my wife and I. You will be fine man, just get a weight distribution hitch installed and you'll be golden, my truck does not squat with that hitch. And don't forget to drive between 65 and 70 mph.

Unfortunately I traded it in in April, to get a 2022 superduty with the 7.3 gas engine, I started another business so I had to get a truck with more towing capacity and payload. The titan was a great truck. I drove it through North Georgia, Tennessee, North and South Carolina towing that same travel trailer and it did great up in the mountains. I found out that the seat spot for the transmission while towing is 70mph, it will stay at around 1800/2000 rpm. Enjoy it!

Nice video. I am thinking of getting a Titan, I have heard mixed reviews. I hope to test drive one in the weeks to come. Did you experience any delay in accelerating from a slow roll? Did you follow the break-in instructions? A review on the Titan would be great. I am so tired of the reviews from people who only drive the vehicles up the street and back or the people who have a gauntlet that they run every vehicle though. It would be helpful to hear a review from real people who have spent their hard earned money on a vehicle not just someone who was given a vehicle to test drive. Thanks

Thanks man. No delay at all, this transmission is way better than the previous models, it's a 9 speed 1st gear is really short, shorter than the rest of the gears, so I think is just about getting used to it.
