<\/a><\/p>\nWe received a very good briefing on the Suite and the only hitches were that our BC Trailer License Plate is smaller than Quebec ones so tie wraps were used as a temporary.
\nThe only other hitch was that I was given and incorrect hitch ball height. I think the measurement given was for 14in wheels instead of the 13\u2019s of the Suite<\/i>. A redo of the ball to the smaller drop served as a good temporary. Made the front of the trailer lower than level but was no problem at all towing it home. Once home I got a receiver with a 1\/2 inch rise and all is well.<\/p>\n
Weather in Ontario did not co-operate to do a sleep-test. Not until we got to Alberta was it warm enough to try it out. It\u2019ll take some adapting, coming from a 26 foot GMC Motorhome but it\u2019s all good.<\/p>\n
The tow was effortless. Speeds were as regular posted. I did not install the brake controller for the trip home. Was a bit extra careful coming down the grades on the Coquihalla. By now the Brake controller has been installed to add that extra bit of safety for next trip.<\/p>\n
The Suite<\/i> stayed hitched on all the time, except while visiting Mr. Lube in Ottawa. This was in part due to not having any ball lock and I didn\u2019t want to make it extra easy, \u00a0just in case someone took a shine to it without wanting to pay the price of admission.
\nThe other reason is that most municipalities don\u2019t allow an un-hitched trailer to be parked on their streets.
\nIt was absolutely no problem to drag the Suite<\/i> into parking lots or shopping centers. Had to be a bit more selective with the actual parking but any space that had 2 slots open head to head made for a perfect spot.<\/p>\n
Almost every time we stopped in a public lot the Suite<\/em> had heads turning and folks saying Hi and asking to get a peek. The most common comment: Oh it’s so cute.<\/em><\/p>\n ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Picking up the Suite from ProLite was an opportunity for a road-trip in the Santa Fe Sport and a shakedown tow, all in one. Cost estimate was less than shipping would have been. We\u2019ll see how that turns out once the adding machine quits whirring.
