    Lock n roll installed today, I got the new version (I believe it is the 500 series, so 5th rev?)
    Pretty diesel build and design. Had to drill new half inch holes in trailer, but no problem otherwise. I got he vehicle side with the 2" drop or 2" lift option. As the trailer sits right now, will have to do a 2" drop, if I put the bigger tires, will have to do the 2" lift, but then I can't open the rear door with the trailer connected Shouldn't be much stored in the truck anyway.

    I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.

    I towed it to Lowes the other day, no rattle, no slop on reverse and a breeze to hook up. I like it so far

    Got my 5000 BTU AC unit and a little 700watt microwave setup today. I bought a shelf unit and tied some nylon rope to suspend the microwave under one of the wings. Out of the weather, easy to get to and uses otherwise useless space. I set the AC up very similarly. The wings are 13" above the floor of the trailer, just the exact height of a small window banger. Cut a hole in the tent flooring material, setup velcro around the perimeter as well as the AC unit, fit perfect!
    Now I am reading to go camping. I realize the AC will not run on the battery setup, but the microwave will. This is for campground camping.
