Trailer?

10-29-2014, 06:21 PM

We are going to look at a 2007 3124KS Saturday. Can anyone that owns a 3124KS tell me what they like and what they do not like? We do not even know what the awning is like. The awnings on my trailers were nothing like the one on our pop up.

it is my favorite so far,
the amount of room, floor space, cabinet space, laying back in that king size bed and looking to the front, and it's 31 ft away, now that's some room.
concerns with this one,
weight on a single axle, tongue weight , must be aware of drag factor with length, and with the amount of room it is easy to overstock.
now the dw liked the smaller 2720, with the beds on each end, for what it's worth

What WDH do you have? Do you have sway in windy weather? Any problems setting up. I had rain for 4 days coming home with a 24' pop up. That was not fun!!!!

I use a Reese with 800 lbs bars , works fine, never any sway with wind or passing of big trucks , but also have a TV that's can handle it.
that's the grt thing about a tm , can set up and put away in the rain , as long as the awning is not out and wet, just like any other rv, packed up last trip in the rain, all was dry inside

We use a 600 lb reese wdh. The tm tracks so well, I stop using the sway controller. For a while I would bring the controller with me, but now it stays in the garage.

Only issue we have had with closing up in the rain is the curtains can get wet. We now carry two old towels and quickly wipe down the side if its wet.

As far as WDH and sway control is concerned, my dealer really likes the Blue Ox product as they get great factory support and excellent customer feedback (so they say). Only issue is whether it will fit on the electric slide out models as it needs 33 inches from the center of the ball back to mount on the frame and be usable. I have not gotten an answer on that yet.

Reviews on this product note the lack of noise and that you do not need to unhook it to back up. Videos make it look very easy to put on and off. Reese products do get a lot of traction on these forums though, so make sure to look at them as others have noted. I also wonder if the sway control would add extra stability if you have a tire failure?
