That’s an interesting setup. You pulling a travel trailer behind it as well?

Just sharing a bit.

I bought my roxor in Washington ST as that is mostly where I am from. Spent some time in Alaska, but not with the Roxor. I worked in the logging industry for many years then became an operating engineer, operating everything from roller to cranes.

Bening retired an now pretty much free to roam, I have had atv's and motorcycles, the TW200 Yamaha being my favorite to play in the back country. I still have a 420 honda atv that is great, but nothing will take the place of the Roxor. As it is now big plated and is my daily driver, I am pumped to go to Moab Utah and play. No harsh rock crawling, just an easy ride for me and my gal. Lots of sand and easy going, and will stay there for jeep week. Will be fun to join in.

I will be loaded out tomorrow and leave on Tuesday, pictures forthcoming.

How does it pull? Looks weird with that fifth wheel way back there. I guess the Roxor balances it out when comes to towing.

Pulls fine. Have gone across country several times without issues. The truck is a 5500 and hardly feels the weight. I figure it only has about 7000 on the rear axle and is rated at 18500 so it just smooths out the ride.

I can move the plate forward if not loaded.

I love the set up but not enough room for snacks in a single cab for me. My back seat looks like a convince store on cross country drives.

Since we’re posting up unusal tow rigs here’s mine circa early 2000’s. Had to tow the Jeep back for a new set of gears Had it regeared and the rear started whining on my way to work. Ring gear was pitted and the paint burnt off the diff cover. Gears were warrantied and second set was good to go. So I did the only thing I knew to do. Load it on my truck and haul it back home. Don’t want to do that again at todays diesel prices.

Will do when I get there. I sent you a pm awhile back regarding hitting some trails together.

That is an impressive set up, that truck is doing some serious work. I live in Utah and can not wait to get my Roxor down there also. Have fun and be save!
