New T@B 400 in Phoenix, AZ

tonykrick

Hi All,

Just got my 400 about two weeks ago and am finally all settled in....  That means I'm a young(ish) full-timer currently living and working in Phoenix. 

I keep downsizing; first from a 3bdr house six years ago to a 28' travel trailer then to a Pleasureway sprinter and now to the T@B, and I think I'm gonna like it here.

Most weekends find me north of the city mtn biking, hiking, or just escaping the heat.

These forums have played a big part in my decision to buy a nuCamp product and I'm not the least disappointed.  Though I will also say I've been drooling over the t@bs for years and pictured myself in one eventually.

Thanks all and hope to meet some of you out on the road ahead.

Tony

Awesome, congrats on your new home purchase! Hope to see you out on the road and also on the mountain bike trails! Get in touch if you ever make it out to the Bay Area. Also, if you are young(ish) then that must make me young(est) at 32 :-)

Welcome Tony!  We love our 400 too and have enjoyed the comfort, extra room and luxury it affords when away from home.  People are amazed when they step inside and the “wow” factor sets in.

I'm currently towing with a 2017 Jeep Cherokee (Trail Hawk)  with the factory tow package.  It's working OK but I'll probably replace it with a basic 1/2 ton pickup eventually.   

I haven't experienced any significant sway and I don't need an equalizer hitch so I'm pretty happy about that. 

Last weekend I drove it up the mountains from Phoenix and easily maintained 65 the whole way.  Gas mileage took a significant hit though (down to about 12mpg)  but the jeep never does any better than 22 in the best of conditions.

I would love to see what fuel economy one of the new eco-boost engines (such as an F150) can get pulling it.

I will add that the jeep and boondock combination made fine work once I got up into the forest and back some rough trails.
