Jake Brakes are good.
Glad you got down ok.
We have had a jake brake on this truck since new. And have appreciated more and more.
That Hill is quite something, I will not do it again, well not with a 5th wheel behind me.

Break away
Thanks. I was passing Camping World and stopped in to plead my 'dumbness'. They are very kind, a young guy stepped our to my 5th wheel and fixed it in less than 5 minutes.
No charge. I will go back...

Breakaway switch
I inadvertantly pulled one of the breakaway wires out of the j box, but looking into the box it is not obvious which one of the connectors is the correct one to plug into.
The wire is a black/white.

Generator
Thanks Mike,
I have a larger Honda, which I have wired into my home, but a small one would be great for the trailer.
Is yours hardwired, and in the generator box?

Honda Generator
I have a 07 Montana 5th wheel. I am considering getting a small generator, placing it in the bed of the truck, for those times when we need to take lunch en route, and use the microwave. Any ideas,...

Whistler/Pemberton to Lillooet
Wow; That road is a killer, driving our 07 Dodge 3500 with a Montana in tow, we were sweating it on the uphill, and breathing sighs of relief on the down side. The road to the top is very steep, lots...

Pull rite
Well I got the unit off the sellers 3/4 ton Dodge Diesel 2WD.
My truck is a 3500 series 4/4 short bed, do you think I will need a different set of fittings.

Thanks
Thanks guys. I think I will go with my Honda for a while. The Montana is wired, and there is a designated 'box' for a gen. But as I bought a really nice gen for my home, at the time we were expecting...

What I did find when we did our trip, you have to be prepared to keep stopping, as the view points are spectacular.
When in Newport, park up and treat yourself to lunch at the Safron Salmon, a small...
