How's those blind spots? I'm going to be towing a camper near the same length two weeks from now through Calgary, the foothills, and mountains and I'm having a hell of a time trying to find confirmed fitting universal tow mirrors but don't want to tow without themWe went on our first trip since picking our camper up last month. It was about an hour and a half each way through some hills and the truck did great. I need to adjust my hitch up a few holes to account for bed weight (we had firewood and some gear in it so that things are good and level, but the power was there and the brake control was great. My dad shot a little video of us hitting the highway. These trucks can tow well!
Honestly not too bad. This trailer is a narrower model so it’s not a ton wider than the truck. My BSM also works fairly well for the trailer so I didn’t have any moments where I felt like I was in jeopardy of merging over on somebody or anything like that.How's those blind spots?

Noted! Thank youHonestly not too bad. This trailer is a narrower model so it’s not a ton wider than the truck. My BSM also works fairly well for the trailer so I didn’t have any moments where I felt like I was in jeopardy of merging over on somebody or anything like that.
Which roof rack and light bar do you have?
Hows the ride with no load?I have a 24 TRD Sport 4X4 with the towing package. I pull a 21 foot Winnebago Minnie with a leveling hitch but still had too much sag. I discovered these Timbren bump stops. Three bolt install after slightly lifting the rear end with a floor jack. Totally solved the sag issue for less than $300.00. Picture shows the difference between the factory stops and the Timbren. Timbren's ride about one inch above the axle with no weight in the bed, so it doesn't change the ride when not hauling. Highly recommend them!

No difference. The bump stops sit about an inch above the axle when there is no load.Hows the ride with no load?
