Re: Rated towing capacity

One thing that I don't think anyone has mentioned:

If you are involved in an accident, things can go quite badly for you in court if you have exceeded the tow rating of your vehicle.

Is it just me, or does the Dedicated Power Module (DPM) appear to be a DC-AC inverter?

I agree, the current draw isn't making sense, although 3500 btu isn't much. Also, lower down on the page it lists MINIMUM current draw as 31 amps.

I found a very useful link, but I'm not allowed to post URL's yet. I did a Yahoo search on "sheeted tiller" and it was at the top of the list. I hope that helps.

Thanks Frank. I'm sure the 26X dimensions are close enough.

I was hoping for <32' long and <9' high. Sounds like outdoor storage and a tarp may have to do.

26D Storage Dimensions

I'm getting ready to take the plunge into Mac ownership and I'm looking for indoor storage. Can anyone tell me the clearance height, length and width of a 26D on the trailer?
