Thank you ! 2006 F150 4.6L V8 with electric brakes
Its dry weight is about the same as a C26. Overall length is 28' but living is 24', model is Catalina 243RBS.

Just got back from the 130 mile trip home..and it was ok except a few long steep hills and they weren't too bad..

So, tonight, you sit in a lawn chair, sip wine, rum coke or whatever, stare at the new Travel trailer, and just enjoy!

NICE!
Welcome home!
