I thought it would make a cool picture. Usually leave it on SXM or Google Maps.I get the need / want of the camera to show behind the trailer. But, why the view of the hitch?

Ah... I've run CarPlay (usually showing AppleMaps)and the bedview a couple times in the 12" screen. Usually it's AppleMaps in the larger portion and CarPlay displaying music in the smaller section. Def need to look at a trailer backup camera.I thought it would make a cool picture. Usually leave it on SXM or Google Maps.
yeah, the same here. Google Maps on left 2/3, SXM on right 1/3 or SXM on left 2/3 and whatever on right 1/3. The last couple tows I didn't feel comfortable with Google Maps routing, so I just bought the RV890 when it was on sale for $399 due to the reviews from RV youtubers. The trailer backup is a Furrion 5" that was given to us by the person we bought the TT from. I would prefer something larger with better resolution, but it was part of the deal.Ah...

Refreshing to see someone with reasonable MPG expectations when towing a giant sail. Just because you drop $70k on a pickup doesn't mean it'll magically convert 500 ft lbs of torque from 20 MPG when towing your RV.30 foot 10 inches, 6300 dry. It's a Twilight Sel2665.
Truck didn't feel much different than the 23 foot, 3800 dry camper I just got rid of. MPGs where just under 9, so about what I expected
Unrealistic expectations lead to disappointment.Refreshing to see someone with reasonable MPG expectations when towing a giant sail. Just because you drop $70k on a pickup doesn't mean it'll magically convert 500 ft lbs of torque from 20 MPG when towing your RV.
I'm not an "urban" truck kinda guy, but that truck looks awesome
May be low and considered an "urban " truck but it still gets put to use.
Go Hokies! (Though it's been a rough year, football-wise!)Yesterday, got home from a round trip boondocking, tailgate weekend. with my MY22 Power Boost and my travel trailer in tow. Drove a total of 456 miles. On one tankful of nothing but towing, I got 10.5 mpg.
The truck supplied power to the trailer for a total of 55.5 hours., both at a Walmart on the way up, and at the large field next to the small airport where RV tailgaters have season parking passes. Used a total of 7.1 gallons of gas during those 55.5 hours.
All in all another successful outing with my Power Boost.
Yep. Another game where defeat was snatched from the jaws of victory.Go Hokies! (Though it's been a rough year, football-wise!)
We've already winterized my trailer back about a month ago, but now that I have my truck I can't wait to get it back out of storage again in the spring. The PB opens up so many new boondocking opportunities! I'm already starting to scout out some Forest Service campgrounds that I want to try out which I had previously avoided.
