Hey folks -
I'm going to be moving from New York to Texas this summer and am planning on towing my belongings (after selling furniture) with a U-Haul rental trailer. I have a 2010 Dodge Ram 1500 Big Horn 5.7L. It does not have the digital trailer brake installed in it but it does have the "Tow/Haul" option on my dash. I know to try and distribute the majority of the weight over the center of the trailer and then even the front and rear weights, but any advice beyond that? I don't want my truck to sag either as this will be a three day trip.
Any advice for making a trip like this and towing the largest U-Haul covered trailer (6'x12')? I've read about the air pillows for the rear and all, and I imagine I should install the digital trailer brake? Anything else?
Thanks in advance!
