Just curious... and certainly a way to get conversations started!

Our F38 Sierra Sport 5th Wheel... because it has SO MUCH ROOM! Every feature available is on it... Great storage as well.

6 in family ... 6 quads to carry plus one Yamaha Lifted Offroad golf cart

My Raptor,
It fits us perfectly. We have three quads a crank up barbeque, two large dogs, my 13 year old and he usually has a friend go along, my husband and me. When we go to the dunes, my brother comes and sleeps on the sofa bed, and a friend who has a sand rail comes and sleeps in the garage "condo"

Lots of room for everyone. We have owned this toy hauler for over a year now, and really enjoy our trips to Oceano Dunes with it.

My Thor. It was cheap. Still worth more then I owe, get's me out there and works for me. Plenty of room and lots of CCC so I can load almost everything in the sig in the back.

OK, as a designer of toy haulers, I would really like to hear why people think their's is the best. I have recently left Heartland and have become the engineer over Endura Max's "Wide Open" toy haulers. So, tell me why your's is best. After all, I think mine are the best and want you to show me what I am missing.

Thanks,
Toy Box Engineer

We have a 2003 RageN 27P from the old National RV. I like it because of the Quality as compaired to other brands and it has all of the right features for my needs (16ft + cargo deck). I can put my Camaro in the trailer or all of our toys and go!

Toy Box Engineer,
I saw your post this morning and it made me think about several things that I would/have done better on my toy box. PM me if you are interested in hearing them.

I have a Tahoe Transport 33' 5th wheel. It pulls well. I wish it had more storage. It holds a Yamaha Rhino, Honda 450 Forman, Honda 400EX, and Yamaha YFZ450. I love the on board gas station and generator. With the 2 queen beds in the back and one in the front, plus the couch and dinet it sleeps the whole family and my sons friend.

This is a pretty subjective topic.

Best for what?

I tend to think that the best TH will be the best built, huge, and loaded.
For instance, the Travel Supreme Rally Sport.

But, what if you only have a half ton truck, then this wouldn't be the best choice. What if you're new to the whole camping/riding thing and not sure how the rest of the family will like it? Don't want to invest a ton of money there, until your sure it's something everyone is interested in.

Personally, for me, I'd like a 40' 5'er with rear stacker. Max height and max width legal. Add in a couple of slides, and something huge to pull it with. 150 gal fresh, 100 gal grey, 40 gal black. An Onan Marquis Platinum 7000, auto levelers, disk brakes, Satellite Array, Automatic awnings, roof top viewing platform, flush mounted e-track, solar panels.

Yes, it is a subjective topic - but it sure makes for good "conversation."


We've not heard about the trailer you mentioned, the Travel Supreme Rally Sport. So being very curious , we took a look. Nice trailer - good size - but, in our opinion, you are so limited with what you can do with your toyhauler when you have one with a garage.

We certainly would not be able to fit ALL of our toys into it to go play!

Also, a concern we had, was the dry weight & the GVWR of the trailer. It is very heavy. Our fifth wheel has the gooseneck assembly; this increases our towing ability to 18,200. So, if that trailer was at the 19,900 capacity, we'd be in a world of hurt!

So... hmmmm... just some thoughts....

Everything you said is correct. I too couldn't have a trailer with a garage. I have enough trouble fitting our stuff in our current trailer. That's why I want a stacker. I believe Admins trailer was supposed to have a small stacker available as an option in the garage, but it didn't get approved.

The Travel Supreme is a really nice trailer for some, and I would certainly enjoy the extra comforts, but it just wouldn't work for us at this time.

The vendor who supplied the stacker for the company that admin bought his unit from could not get it to work properly. So Coachmen never put it in a unit to be sold to the public.

It would be a nice addition to a TH with a garage.

how much higher can a toy hauler be built legally? that would be cool with a stacker in the back, but then that would take away the dbl queen bunks and sleeping capacity

I would assume you could build right on up to the legal limit of 14 feet.

WOW! squeeze that down to 32 feet "somehow" and I would buy it!

Shopping, I am looking at the 32 foot Cherokee Wolf Pack. Does anybody have any information on this brand. I might go with the 29 foot. We spend a lot of time in the timber of Idaho and Oregon so therefore spend a lot of time on logging roads, how do the slides hold up to 10 miles of washboard roads? All I can find on the internet is that Forest River is a good manufacturer, but nothing about their specific Wolf Pack line. I do not care for the graphics though?? Any help would be appreciated. I have until March or April to shop as I am in Afghanistan (camping without an RV).

Well since I'm the last to reply at this time....I'd say mine is the BEST! It's 38' is enough room for all the toys, a future buggy and 3 person Sea Doo! We have hosted pot-lucks and Poker runs from the "flagship" and the best thing about a 38' 5er is....all your friends can find you! Although if they build Diirk's trailer- push it up to a 46' and I'll take one and one of those hot little Frieghtshaker crewcab M-2's to pull it with! (we are still dreaming, right? )

ESCLADE.

I prefer my 24' 03' Jayco Talon ZX TH cause its PAID FOR AND I HAVE THE PINK!

Payments Suck

This would be my vote also. We looked at a 41sks the other day and it was awesome. With a 20k gvwr, nice cabinetry, huge refrigerator, quality build and a fireplace, it's hard to beat. The only downside I see is the north of 100k price, need for a HDT to pull it and the somewhat small garage.

is that the one made by newmar?

KZ Escalade Sportster

Here is the Newmar

that's right, on the 4th in tahoe we were next to a newmar 5er with duals all around that thing was awsome.

My favorite toy hauler is any one of the one's I had designed. Been with 4 different companies that make them, so list is long. Wait, I would eliminate One company from the list based on how they treat people, but only in a pm as I don't bad mouth my previous employer in public.

TBE,

Can you find out if GS is going to release a 5500 or 6500 chassis version on the Endrua? (Not the garage max, but the regular Class C)?

Sandman,
I will look into it for you and let you know, unfortuneately, I don't do motorized so I have to ask the other engineer.

I LIKE YOUR WAY OF THINKING.

TBE:
What do you think of the KZ Escalade Sporsters? I was thinking of purchasing one and an F450 to pull it with and live in it for a couple yrs.

The one that you currently own! and the only thing that makes it better is when its paid off!

Now that just makes good sense...I second that motion.

I may be slightly biased since my company, Phoenix Coach Works, is a custom toy hauler manufacturer but I think the best toy haulers are the ones that are built to last and custom created to fit your exact needs. We have been in business for over 25 years and 90% of our trailers are still on the road today which speaks volumes of our construction quality.
