Ric04SiR Posted May 30, 2014 Report Share Posted May 30, 2014 Didn't know what to expect, if i would need a weight distribution hitch because of the weight on the tongue. It as a dry weight of aprox 1700lbs and the weight on the hitch without the propane tank and the 12V batterie beside the tank is 260lbs. But finally it did great on the highway, no problem breaking and accelerating, almost feel nothing. rolly and sexyRTboi 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Journeyman425 Posted May 30, 2014 Report Share Posted May 30, 2014 Looks great! My pop-up is smaller and lighter than yours, but I used to tow it with my older 300M and was very much aware of it behind me. With the Journey I hardly know it is there.

sexyRTboi Posted June 8, 2014 Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 Nice set up ! .... Our DJ surprised us too when we towed our new camper last summer from Ontario to Cape Cod Mass. - you can "feel" it back there alil, but not nearly as much as we thought we would. On the highway, my fiance was actually getting better MPG that I do commuting back and forth to work - lol - This year before we go, we plan on putting on a brake controller just to cover all our bases, but we wouldnt hesitate to go out again without it. Happy Travels ! rolly and Ric04SiR 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJ FROM MB Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 Please read my post about 2011+ Journey towing for installing a brake controller. They did not make it very strait forward. When it comes time you can MSG me as well sexyRTboi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming you have the 3.6 and the tow prep package, your vehicle is rated for 2500lbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
