Here at LCM Used Car Center, we know how much our friends and neighbors in East Petersburg, PA love to get out and about in their campers during the spring and summer. As such, we have decided to create a short guide to preparing your pickup truck or SUV for the road ahead.
One of the most important things that you need to do before you hit the road is check that you have the right kind of hitch. You will be able to choose from Hitch Class 1 (towing capacity of 2,000 lbs), Hitch Class 2 (towing capacity of 3,500 lbs), Hitch Class 3 (towing capacity of 8,000 lbs) and Hitch Class 4/5 (towing capacity of 18,000 lbs).
Before you leave your driveway, it is also important to ensure that you have everything you might need during your trip. In the camper, this probably means checking for cutlery, blankets, pots, pans, and toiletries. In the truck or SUV, you should ensure that you have a first aid kit, flashlight, a flashlight, and some basic tools to make repairs as needed.
