First Time Towing My Teardrop Trailer

Went on my First trip after Installing the Peak Summit kit! This includes their upper control arms to correct the caster angle, two spacer options for the rear, a front spring spacer and front strut spacer all resulting in about 2'' of lift. I personally got the bigger lift option in the rear so the truck is level with all my gear in the back. I think this is a great option to get a lift while not spending crazy money. I really just wanted some simple spacers since I already bought the off road version of the truck with the factory piggy back shocks. The ride is still great, makes the truck sit really nice after all the added weight and has the proper proportions now after also adding 35's. All in all really recommend their kit if you're not looking to spend too much money but still want a nice ride, good looks and some added clearance for the trail.

Went for a quick winter test run with my Boony Stomper trailer. It weighs about 750 lbs. with what I had loaded up. MPG was about 13 on the highway, doing about 75-80. Not terrible, but not amazing. I imagine I could get closer to 15 if I slowed down a bit and the drive was more flat. You can definitely feel the trailer, but I didn't experience a huge loss of power or anything. I have the hybrid.
