So excited this morning. Picking up my 2017 nuCamp T@B 320 S with cherry red trim. A little nervous about towing and hitching. 
Thanks to everyone who congratulated me and answered my questions regarding bed size and list of campgrounds offering group rates near Sugar Creek.

    Welcome!  Everyone is nervous the first time.  Take your time, route through low traffic areas if you can.  Your dealer will help you hitch.

    Congratulations and 🎉Happy Tab Day! I always carry a can of silicone spray. The hitch might be tight and stick when it’s new. Spray the everloving out of it, over and under to help it loosen up a bit. Have fun and safe travels!

    Congrats!  I just picked up my T@B 320S Boondock this past Monday and survived my first towing experience (although I was exhausted that evening!).  My 125 mile tow went very smoothly, and my Jeep did great (it is a very hilly route). 

    The only unexpected thing for me was the loud bang/thud sound my hitch made when there were any bumps or holes in the pavement . . . which freaked me out a bit (but I've since learned that is normal).

    Hopefully your tow will go as well as mine.  :)

    @Arwen Congratulations to you, too! I like that THUNK sound because it means Ladybug is still back there!  :)

    @Arwen, get a Hitch Tightener.  Takes the slack out of the ballmount/receiver connection and limits those noises.
