Quick update: I decided to go with just the simple hitch. Truck tires at 50, trailer 80. Super smooth mostly flat drive from Orange County down to Encinitas. Some slow traffic initially, then kept it at 65 MPH. I was impressed with the energy usage - much better than my "teardrop" trailer!

Looking for advice: I will pick up a (new to me) Airstream Bambi 20FB this week. The trailer weighs approximately 4,000 lbs with tongue weight of around 550. It comes with a Blue Ox 10000/1000 WDH that the previous owner used on his Ram 1500. I hooked it up with a simple hitch and of course the...

The "location-aware" settings are neat, but hard to manage. My wife was asking me about this weird behavior in her Y where the mirrors fold and unfold every time she drives though a particular intersection. She must have folded the mirrors once (probably by accident) while waiting at the light...

I drive 90% using FSD and while lane choice has improved, it remains the most frequent intervention. SoCal freeways can flow at 70 MPH while packed and in these conditions it invariably does not get into the right lane early enough, requiring some dicey lane changes to make the exit (when I...

Try giving SiriusXM a call. I'm on the "Music & Entertainment Advantage 25" plan at $8.50 per month.

Yep, the Airstreams are pretty nice. I was concerned about their weight, but looks like that matters less than I thought. For long trips the Safari Condo A-series look like the way to go.

Brief notes after camping trip on Coronado Island, towing a Braxton Creek Bushwacker trailer. The trailer is 18', 3,500 lbs with about 8x8 frontal surface. The campground is about 40 miles from our house in Encinitas, most of it along the I5. Hilly, but total elevation gain is almost 0. I was...

Thanks for bringing this up. Yup, same issue, although only occasionally. Can take a while to resolve (e.g. I've gone entire trip into town with that message)

I agree - there should be some reward for contributing FSD data. Discount / credit for sharing various levels of detail; some reward for leaving a voice note when disconnecting. Maybe free as long as you contribute at least 2x per month?

Picked up my AWD CT on Friday and LOVE it - already 400 miles driven! Looking over it carefully though, the left side of the frunk is significantly lower than the right and misaligned to the body (see pic). The service center said they don't think it can be adjusted. Any suggestions - should I...
