..does your passenger van have sufficient towing capacity for your Elkmont? Did you use a WDH w/both trailers? We have some towing experts on the Forum who may chime in here.

We can't tell the difference between towing our former 3326 and our Elkmont 26 other than about 1.5 mpg less. The 26 is lighter than the 3326 which was right at the tow limit of our '97 Suburban.

On the plus side, we have noticed an advantage with the Elkmont going down the steep CA hills we have here. Because of the added wind resistance, we use much less braking and downshifting.
