I have the 320trl and love it. Which one do you have? I also have the pull-rite hitch (no slider-didn't need it with long bed) and wouldn't have any other hitch (that I have seen yet).

We had a 29RL before getting our MH and also towed it with a Dodge CTD. Nice layout. We did like the rig but found the MH fits our lifestyle better. We did find a few quirks with the 5er. The subwoofer for the stereo system was found under the stairs to the bedroom. You had to find it behind a barrier in the forward storage area. It was absolutely useless there, no sound made it into the living area. Also, check the tires. Ours came with cheap Chinese made tires (bias ply) that had cracked sidewalls within a year. I did not give them a chance to fail before I replaced them.
Have fun with your new 5er.

I've owned 4 different models of 5'ers and I firmly believe that the Laredo was by far the best bang for the buck. Enjoy.

We have the same setup you're thinking about along with a Laredo. You can't ask for a better hitch / truck combination. The only thing I'll add is that you'll want a hitch mirror. The rear seat is so far back that hitching up is tough. You can't see over the rear of the seat for alignment.

check the tires, if they are milestars, Keystone did not replace them like sposed to in the recall. Also if it has spare check to see if they left the milestar on the spare when replacing the otheres with Marathons. Sound like I been there?

We love our Laredo 29RK
Fits our style to a "T"
Easy to pull and has very few minor problems. (all fixed by me)(loose screw,wiring needed a zip tie ect.)
As far as the hitch, Pull-rite Superglide with Super rails.
After about 10/12,000 mi I think it the best hitch I've ever used.
See sig for set-up
Enjoy
