We just purchased a Flagstaff 23LB - ~3600lbs dry weight. I'm using a weight distributing hitch, and pulling with a 2001 4x4 automatic. The Trac is outfitted with a canopy top as well. The 23LB pulls pretty well - running around 2750 RPMs on level ground with O/D on at 100 km/hr. However, when the wind comes up it's hard to keep it up to 90km/h. The fuel mileage is horrible - not a big surprise there...
i've scanned through most of the towing posts here before making the purchase, so I'm comfortable with the capability of the ST for towing. However, I'm just wondering what recommendations people may have to help make the towing experience a little better. For example - any upgrades for fuel economy, a wind deflector on the canopy to reduce wind resistance, etc?
TIA!
