Looks perfectly proportioned behind the 700. You're gonna love it!

Which is basically the same size as the 1000 right. Empty it's 1/2 the weight of the tow vehicle and with the gear, 3/4 ths. or so. In my truck I regularly pull twice it's weight, but I have no idea if that means anything when comparing a sxs to a truck. ;)

With the axel set so far rear of center, you can tell that thing is going to track sweet. At some point I'm going to create a list of gear that we will have in the trailer and in the bed of the P1K. I'll load 50# feed sacks (something I have readily on hand at the ranch) in the front seat mimicking our weight as well as the bed mimicking gear weight carried there to see how it weights it down so that I adjust the receiver accordingly, I like a trailer to be perfectly level when pulling. It pulls better and of course looks better. Then the squaw and I can get in it with feed sacks in the bed mimicking the gear weight and feed sacks in the Osprey mimicking the gear weight which will be in it, and then conduct some test pulls!

Got ours for about 120 on eBay. It bolted in using existing holes. Once unlocked they can be changed to anything you want. Comes with keys in case batteries go dead but we change batteries every season

Yes but it's a one time fee and if you were to lose keys one time it pays for itself.

It amazes me still at the numbers sometimes but things add up. I did around 13k to our 700 one time. They totaled it and I fixed in shop that was a sweet deal lol.

Well sometimes if a problem or multiple ones arise then someone would have a hard time doing something planned. It hard to put time and money at something when it's needing to go elsewhere.

Huh??? I've lost my RV keys before, went to the dealer and he gave me a replacement. There's only a dozen or so key codes out there for them. He had a box to rummage through. Similar to my John Deere tractors. I could keep my key each time I trade in, been the same one all four tractors I bought.

If you went to the dealer yes. Say you were out on the trail and that happened. With this you'd leave Pioneer (or Prius) keys inside and not worry. Might not be necessary for everyone but it is nice not to worry.

I have two sets of keys with a magnetic keeper on the trailer frame.
