I pull a 26ft Coleman Lantern fully loaded at 6800lbs and an 800lb hitch weight. With a load-leveling Class 5 hitch, I still added Timbren bump stops. It changes the unloaded ride to a bit stiffer, but not unacceptable.

The Wife, Grandbaby, and I don't 4 wheel camp so this unit suits her glamping requirements.

The Opus OP15 Off Road Hybrid Caravan is an exceptional design. This setup is Australian designed specifically for Overlanding. I had the opportunity to tour one at Overland Expo - East. Their build quality is exceptional. There are a couple of others in the same league, including: Bruder EXP-6, Black Series HQ-19, and the XPlore RV X22 Toy Hauler.

I towed quite a bit this weekend. I only towed about 4500 pounds. I was shocked how bad the gas mileage was. I mean I know it’s a big heavy gas truck but it’s getting close to Rv v10 range bad.

Our tow hauler is towed by our Ram 2500 4x4 Cummins, not by our Power Wagon.

Sinclair, Wyoming on 2/20/2022 around 7 AM on the way back to Laramie with both I-80 and Highway 30 closed for over a day to light high profile vehicles due to high winds over 60 MPH. Heavily loaded 13 feet high by 33 feet long trailer and our Ram are furthest in photo.
