New to the rv world
hey every one. so I didn't really know where to start so I figured id start here. well short intro is the wife and I recently bought a 2017 gulfstream amerilight 255bh travel trailor. and are open to any and all tips or tricks people have to make it feel more homey and diys that can be done to make it more usefully like solar panels people have used, and what kind of hitch every one has had the best control/ anti sway with. We are in florida so most of the roads down here are flat and straight but we do plan on traveling across country so any help would be amazing.

Welcome to the forum an congrats on the purchase.
I too have heard good things about the blue ox.
Remember to watch your weight, especially in the mountains of the west.
