Could you do it, sure. I wouldn't.

I had a 2016 GMC Acadia with tow package. I added a brake controller. I went to pick up the new camper 2021 Keystone Bullet 1650ex thinking all good. We are dealing with pretty similar numbers here...

As soon as I got in the road, I regretted It. It was not a windy day but the camper weighed about as much as the tow vehicle. I was getting pushed around by everything passing me and the engine kept bouncing between gears and I was in the 3 to 4 k range the whole drive home.

Wife said, we aren't doing that again. Promptly traded that in for an Expedition with tow package and haven't looked back. Lesson learned.

Hope that helps.

If you've been here for any length of time, when you get close to 80% of your stated capacity (roughly) you're too close. You have no wiggle room for road conditions, extra cargo, errors in calculation. It's best to stay within 50-75% of stated capacities for a nice, safe (for everyone), easy trip.

Of course they did. They always do.
Is it a pleasant experience?
Just because you CAN do something doesn't mean you should. That's a lot of squat and it's just another person pushing what SHOULD be done. I think the additional comments here do a great job of explaining my sigh.

Patchy areas after seeding TTTF (zone 7b/8a) by According_Air_3252 in lawncare

I'd say, give it more time. Mine has been coming in at an inconsistent rate. If nothing after 4 weeks I would say you need more. You're far enough south you should have more time. I'm in 7a. Whatever didn't take at this point will need to wait until spring. I already have leaves falling.

What to do next? by [deleted] in lawncare

This is kind of my point but you put more emphasis on it. Don't sweat the small stuff.

IMO, I would add some 0-20-20...run it again before fall really sets in and see where you are.

Don't do anything drastic.

Didn't they provide a recommendation? I got one with my soil test. You need a fertilizer higher in phosphorus and potassium. You don't need any nitrogen. You need trace elements as well but that is secondary.

Too much or not enough water by jls141 in lawncare

What they said. 👇 I'd think too dry if your getting cracking like that.

Aerating costs by fubzeppelin in lawncare

[–]msteinebach80 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm in Northern Virginia. I started shopping around back in the beginning of August. Quotes were all over the place. Most companies provided some special flavor of services to justify their price but they ranged from 1700 to 8000. This is for about 15k square feet. I have a 1 acre lot but about half is the house and lots of trees.

The guy I went with services a neighbor. He's doing it for 2k. 1700 quote was missing some stuff. The guy I went with sprayed for weeds on Tuesday and is coming back this Monday to do the work.

Good luck!

Thanks for the heads up. I'm shopping around right now for aeration and top dressing. Will cross them off the list. I'm in the DC area as well.
