^^ nice Legend (and pull vehicle)! I'm guessing you fit the RZR in it?

Yes I'm really happy to have an all aluminum unit now after seeing how brutally rusty my old steel open trailer frame has gotten over the years (even paint it every second year). My tandem 7x19 has torsion axles so no leaf springs to rust either.

I towed our TT for the first time with the new 3/4 this weekend. I have to say on interstate and two lane the bigger truck does so much better. The big three push the half ton esp with the max tow

Found some windows on eBay that are narrow enough to fit between the framing. Busted out the jigsaw and sheets of insulation foam. It’s now my better-than-a-tent camp trailer.

 

The Honda is much taller than the rzr and rubs the rear opening. 76” tall just fits.

Holy cow that's a long travel trailer. Do you just camp in pull-through spots? There's no way that beast would fit anywhere go. I barely get my lifted 18' jayco into where we camp without ripping the jacks or decals off.

Awesome trailer and absolutely impressive setup. Now I'm inspired to upgrade my current setup. I wanted to turn my truck into an off-road recovery vehicle before. I'm currently looking at fifth wheel hitch at 4wheelonline and see if it will suffice for towing.

Towed a new toy home. Really gotta get a new receiver to adjust for the lowered suspension. And I'm fairly certain the Uhual trailer weighed more than the bike.

Rented a 6x10 cargo trailer to move some stuff this week.

I loaded the trailer with lots of tongue weight, in addition to having lots of weight in the truck bed. It leveled out the truck pretty good. I hauled it 5h down the highway. Got 14.1 l/100km loaded, with a tailwind. On the way back, empty, I got 16.5 l/100km into a very strong headwind.

Heading to the lake after the storm cleared out.  Trailer is about 35', about 5000 lbs with the boat.

We sold our 2008 Harris Flotebote 250 and picked up a brand new Harris Mariner 230. Looks just like yours!

      Tire psi

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      You must have that upgraded gvw package which is only available or at least was in 2025 with the diesel engine for the 3/4 ton and that gave the truck physically the larger 12.0 ring gear rear diff and the 3500 rear spring pack. There is a difference in what the diff housing looks like externally as one tell tale and also your truck should have the upper overload spring pack and the frame pads that the pack goes up against.    The pressure the tpms system kicks the alarm in on a stock setting truck, that is a good question and was just from what I recall but I doubt I made any notes on it as I knew for the rear that it was not at all what I was after regardless either. Being that you have a diesel and if running on stock tires the minimum pressure on an empty truck seems to be around 50 psi from hearing of those that have weighted the front axle but the rear axle is very similar in weight to a gas truck and again a near empty truck on the rear could go down to 35 pounds at minimum. However the weigh scale is the proper way to know for sure as a guide.    As to changing the readings on the dash from metric to the US measuring system, oh yes that is done easily but what I was attempting to explain was that I can't pick and choose items I want to have in US and those I still want in the metric system at the same time as its either all or none. For example lets say you drove into Canada and switched your dash over to metric so your speedometer read in km an hour, well then your reading kilopascals on your tpms readout and your wife looks over and says what the hell is that saying in the tpms screen and you say "darned if I know, I think its Chinese" !

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      This is partly why I decided to have switched over to Amsoil SS as a way of hopefully preventing the buildup of the sludge/carbon on the pistons and clogging of the oil control rings and the carbon that would cause the compression rings to stick in their grooves as well as stay cleaner up top of the heads in the valve train in the first place, an oil that has tested better by third party testing over typical shelf oil and also doing my best to run relatively short OCI. However in saying that I don't think there is any way to easily prove the oil I was using prior allowed for a buildup at the OCI I was doing, nor in the other direction to make claims the Amsoil is keeping everything clean either. There really isn't a window into the engine is there to know anything for certain even if oil samples were taken for example that showed still healthy oil being dropped out of the oil pan other than engine tear downs that extensive and expensive testing of oils does to actually visually see what is really going on inside the engine. I wish there was some easy method of seeing what is going on but I don't happen to be aware of that if there is.

      Tire psi

      By jgaudet99 · Posted

      My truck is a ¾ ton but my placard also says 80 for the rear tires, I think I might have the upgraded suspension to the 3500 series maybe.   I put my air down to 60 and the light was still on, and there was no way I was putting over 60 psi in the rear empty and not towing because I knew the actual number Toyo gave me and I didn't wanna ruin the center of my tires!   And you actually can change it in the settings from metric or is and it will show kph or mph then when you go into your tire settings it will be either psi or kpa, but it would be nice to just change it directly on the tire psi page

      Common Sense Assembly   Your driveline is forgiving of the occasional mistake. It will even often forgive the random serious blunder. But it will not forgive a continuous bad habit.      What? Not everything needs to be a five thousand word essay.

      We drove about 15 minute east today to visit a friend and saw a steep increase in price in the same county. About 50 cents a gallon steepper.
