2015 GMC Canyon toad

Finally got the toad hooked up. Air Force One for brakes. Blue Ox tow bar.
I did the diode lights. All seems to work well. I also ran a hard-wired camera that I mounted to the ladder. It is from Rearview safety systems. Much better than the builtin system. The RVS monitor is 7" color and easier to view than the built-in monitor that the MH came with. More mods as time allows. Now we are off to Destin with a local group.

I've had it for three months. It's been a good vehicle. I had a 2012 F250 Superduty diesel and I loved that truck. This Canyon has been flawless so far. No issues at all. I have 5k miles on it. Wife likes to drive this much better than the diesel. All in all I think it's going to make a great toad. It pulls real nice. The MH is new to us. I've not driven it more than 50 miles. Now on Saturday we head to Destin. So I'm a bit nervous, but I'll just take is easy and I'm sure we will be fine.

I ordered a 2015 Colorado Z71 4x4 back in January to set up for a toad Suppose to get it in April I have been looking at the Demco system.

We have a 2015 Chevrolet Colorado, which is the sibling to the GMC Canyon. We pull it with a Blue Ox and the Insti-Brake braking system. We had a Leer camper topper put on it to protect our chairs, satellite dish, etc. We LOVE the truck!

Just drove our new 2015 GMC Canyon home and we are eager to get it hooked up to the Blue Ox tow bars. We will have to get a new baseplate and electrical system for it. What modifications will be needed?
