Glad to hear your trailer arrived!
We rented an Overkill S.O.5.10 from ROVE for a 2 week Moab trip. Wanted to experience it and see if our rig and it would play nice. We have been ground tenting for well over 30 years. Having a trailer, the Overkill in particular, is a very nice way to travel. Any questions of what it would be like towing were resolved driving the Shafer Switchbacks 19% grade, off-camber hair-pin turns, w/o guard rails. While the Shafer's surface was groomed, going to dispersed campsites the trails were technical. Had no issues doing any of this. The trailer was like a hotel room coming from a ground tent. Only downside was the added fuel consumption which was to be expected towing anything.
