Looking at Toy Hauler

Posts : 5 Join date : 2013-03-11 Location : Nevada

Looking at getting a bumper pull toy hauler and wanted to get some pointers from those of you who have them.
We will use it to haul the kids race bikes and the rhino and also want to be able to fit a 4 wheeler with the rhino when we don't have the bikes. Our current camp trailer is 27' long so I would like to stay around that length.
Thanks.

Thanks for the info that is about the size we are looking at. We have it narrowed down to either a Sand Storm 266slr or a Attitude wide lite 27cbg so now it's just a matter of who gives us the best price, my hope is the Attitude.

Sorry for the old comment, age related wasn't what I meant lol...

It's been so long since I seen or heard YATYAS I reckon I got a little excited...
When did you serve with tracs, which BN.? Or did I miss it and your YATYAS has a different meaning? What would the odds be for that to happen.

I have a 7X16 enclosed trailer that I added a 13500 btu ac unit with the 8500 btu heat strip. Added a shower using a Coleman water heater. Works fine for two of us. Cots for sleeping. 4500 Yamaha gas generator handles everything. Air, microwave, coffee pot, toaster and lights all on. I just wish it was about 4 foot longer. With the rhino and everything in it I have no problems pulling it with a 2012 Ram hemi. What's everyone's thoughts on going to a 8x20 or 8x24 and pulling it with the Ram?

whats your ram 1500,2500 I think the1500 would do ok with the lower gear rear end maybe extra cooler for trans should be good , also depends on how heavy the trailer is even the 8x24 should not break 5000# I would think
