Nice looking rig!

Did that great dealer explain that the only way a gooseneck adapter is accepted by the frame builder under warranty -is by use of the Reese "Goosebox". Not trying to rain on your glory but keep you informed....

Beautiful toyhauler. I have had my eye on that one for a few months now. Congratulations.

Of course not. Thanks for the heads up. What about using the B and W companion hitch? I plan on doing one trip with the trailer loaded and then decide if I'm upgrading my truck to a dually or not.

What model Attitude is that? I went to the Eclipse site and couldn't find any with two slides. I need more space for toys but the wife isn't to keen on only one slide. By the way I really like this Toy Hauler.

Thanks
Dwight

The Companion used in conjunction with a turnover is fine -it is a normal fiftwheel plate/pin connection system.

Dwight,
It is the Attitude 34CRSG listed on the Eclipse site but with a living room slide. They don't have it on their site but it has become their most popular model. If you call the factory they are very helpful over there. Much more accurate info than you will get from any dealer.

MapGuy,
Thanks again. That Reese is looking like a good option. I talked with an RV repair guy yesterday and he was also concerned about my gooseneck adapter.

You might want to check the regs for safety chains, at one time Ca required em if the connection was a ball regardless that it was a goosenck.

Nice rig. If you have a short bed, consider the Colibert Rail Rider. If you are fortunate enough to have a long bed, grab a Companion.

So that dealer is that bad? IN most cases with any dealer, you will find some good stories, you will find some bad--- bhut it seems like these guys are one step away from burning villages and pillaging convents. I guess one reaps what one sows.
