Where did you relocate the exhaust and muffler to?

Yep it does! Surprisingly nice size bathroom. Shower toilet combo room.

On the 16' model theres no need for a WD hitch, and there's a slight squat but nothing too noticeable. Handling at highway speeds, and on windy mountain roads was just fine. Going down the steep hills I'm glad I had trailer brakes and kept the Bronco in low gears.

: We added a new to us 2008 Casita 16’ Spirit Deluxe trailer to our camping gear collection. I thought I’d give a little report on how 805Sasquatch performed on the first trip towing the Casita. Long story short, the Bronco handled it with no problems! More details: Bronco- base Sasquatch...

I attached mine to my Curt trailer hitch right above the receptacle for the safety chains, so the lights are protected by the hitch. These lights are white or yellow, so I also installed a 3 position switch below the steering wheel.

I like the shorter height for that reason as well. I have it behind my F150 right now until I wire up the 7 pin, and brake controller on my Bronco. It looks like it will sit nicely behind the Bronco and not stick above it much. And I'm 6'2", inside the Casita 16 is 5'10". Its comfortable enough...

Cool but out of price range

Found a Casita 16' and apparently they are 800lbs lighter, and tongue weight is 245lbs

I have looked at the Scamp, but something about them just doesn't do it for me. Friend had one of them, and they are definitely light weight.

Now that I’m finding real world tongue weights on the 17’ Casita at 500lbs, it is way too much. Bummer!

What’s the tongue weight with this!

Definitely would do sway control / wdh. Seems like it’s too much trailer.

Yep completely understand that, and alluded to that in my post. That’s why I’m here asking if it’s too much, and seems like it is.

I have a 4dr base Sas, 2.7. Installed the curt hitch, and will add a brake controller as well. I’m looking into buying a 17’ Casita spirit trailer, dry weight is 2480lbs. I don’t plan to carry much in it, and not filling the water tank. So it should stay under 3k total trailer weight. Family of...
