RE: Springdale Summerland 257rl
Once I get pictures up I’ll do it all. It’s a perfect state park camper. Has wide stance axle and 15 inch running gear.
Springdale Summerland 257rl
Finally after 14 years of cavas: 3 pups and HTT I finally caved into the dark side. Picked up a 2015 Springdale Summerland 257rl this weekend. Going to mod it up to Springdale status and enjoy it without the kids. Kids are in soccer land and I’m out of the picture.
RE: Looking at used, canvas repair?
Having both pups and htt they really are only suited for and used in 3 season mode only. Like campgrounds staying closed October thru May and you only get true nice weather only usage. Sol if you have a tT ect. The only 4 season people camping are living in the campgrounds permanently.
RE: Looking into getting first TT
No suv can tow any of those made in last 8 years. Also you list dry weights, please add 1500 pounds for family of 6 at minimum to each dry weight.
Also determine hitch weight: 14% x 8,500lb is 1190 pounds plus hitch gear 150. Lbs You exceeded max hitch rate right off the bat on a 2021 Chevy suburban
The GM max hitch rate of 1,000 pounds is what killed the 2500 series 3/4 ton suburban. in 2013.
RE: 20' travel trailer and an inflatable raft
Kayak rack on truck. Or better yet utility body 3500 series welding body racked up. Half trying to do big truck things and tow a camper.
