Default Thanks TrailManor Man!

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! TrailManorMan Thank you for your time, trust, patience, and tips!

We are now confident we can pull a TrailManor comfortably and have our fingers crossed that we'll find one soon to buy.

Like others had suggested, the 2720 was "easy" to tow. We have a V-8 Chevy Tahoe, and noticed just a little bit of difference in starting and stopping, something I'm sure we'll get used to. Switching from my old Toyota Highlander to a Tahoe was a harder transition than going from the Tahoe w/o TrailManor to Tahoe with TrailManor. It was easier to get used to than a new set of brakes or a rental car.

The first turn was the scariest, the second was okay, and by the third one it almost felt natural. Backing up will come later. TrailManorMan had so many useful insights he shared, including getting pull-through campsites the first few times we go out so we don't have to worry about backing up

Since the Tahoe is a tad wider than the TM we were able to use our regular side-view mirrors to see the lanes on both sides of us. TMM mentioned a camera on the back of the TM would allow us to see traffic directly behind as well. He showed us side-view mirror extensions which we won't need, but driving in a narrower car without them would feel a lot riskier.

Towing the TrailManor was so much easier than driving an RV. Thanks for taking a chance and letting us tow your Trailmanor. And thanks to TrailManorMan's tips we are much better educated about what to look for (and avoid) when purchasing a TrailManor.

Very happy
