Chevrolet Silverado and Mobile Suite - A Perfect Match

After reading about the new 2011 Chevrolet Silverado we decided to make a switch from our Ford 350.  With us pulling nearly 18,000 lbs. in our 2010 Mobile Suite RSSB3 5th wheel we were concerned about the pulling power and braking system on our old Ford.



We have not been disappointed!  We are now on our second week of a 7 week journey through Colorado, Wyoming, Idaho and Montana.  We have tested our equipment on several mountain passes with grades up to 6%.  The power up the grade is great but the exhaust breaking system is fantastic.  By tapping the brake you can set the downward speed to a level that fits your comfort.

As far as the Mobile Suite goes, we love the quality and get compliments at each campground.  We had the side by side washer and dryer added and we highly recommend them if you are planning extended trips.  The generator has also been a great addition and will be very useful during our trip through Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons.

Bottom line---The new Chevrolet Silverado and the Mobile Suite is a perfect match and we recommend each if you are planning on making a RV switch or getting into it for the first time as we did.
