ordered a 260RD

Brian, do you have a link to a good pre delivery checklist?

I already gave the hitch a good once over to make sure the bolts are good. I've used B&W for other stuff in the past and love their quality, but am also the type of guy who always checks the work done by someone else on my vehicles. There's a local quick lube place that I've known the owner since before I could drive and he's the only one I've paid to do anything to any of my vehicles in about 10 years. Having a well equipped shop in my backyard certainly has its benefits!

In the reference library on the second page is a pre delivery inspection thread. Jim has posted a .pdf file there that is very comprehensive.

Supposed to snow 2-4" overnight with sub-zero windchills tomorrow. This should be fun, lol.

We were in Newfoundland last May. We had several days of below freezing temperatures and heavy snow at times. It’s all part of the RV experience.

Safe travels.

Little chilly but pickup went well.

Looks good. Looks like you have enough truck.

When we picked up our last 5th wheel we had very similar weather. I had to wash it as soon as I got home.

Its so exciting getting a new toy to play with.
Hope the PDI went well.

I need to wait for it to warm up a bit before I can wash it, high was about 16*F today!

Was a busy day for us too. We picked up our camper this morning, and then had to be back at the dealership in the afternoon to pick up my parents'! We recently bought some land in the mountains with them and will be using the campers until we build a cabin. We will continue to use ours after that, and in the meantime, as we love taking road trips and want to explore WY, MT, and ID some more.

Today really made me appreciate the 5th wheel too. Truck drove like a DREAM with the B&W Companion slider set 1" in front of axle center and middle height setting. Our roads in Denver aren't the best, but it handled it like a champ. Went back to the dealership to pull my parents' Keystone Hideout 202LHS back and while it still did fine, you could definitely feel a difference, even with the 'stone being a couple thousand lbs lighter.

Now I just need it to warm up!!! Our land in the mountains is at 9500' and it's been snowing up there all weekend. Will try for a shakedown run at one of the local state parks in the next few weeks if weather cooperates.

Also picked up a 2nd battery while we were at the dealer, need to get that wired up and installed.

Hopefully the weather improves for you shortly. We’re getting lots of cold weather and snow here also. Can’t wait until spring arrives.
I knew you would like how the combination handled. The F350 is certainly enough truck for your 5th wheel.
Fun times are ahead!
