I will be taking delivery of a new ATC 28' front bedroom toy hauler at the end of Sept. We are driving to Mich to pick it up and will be road tripping our way back to Boise Idaho. No local dealers so we opted to make a road trip of it rather than pay $3k plus for delivery charges. First time I have ever spent this much $ sight unseen for a unit. We are buying based solely on internet research an would welcome any comments/impressions of current owners. What I was able to find on the net was very encouraging concerning build quality and the options offered were just what we were looking for. We will haul a XP1000 Razor or a Indian Chief Vintage motorcycle on road trips. Tow with a 2015 Ram 3500 DRW. Just my wife and I and the dog so I think there will be ample space. Would like to hear from current owners of ATC units....likes/dislikes, etc.
Thanx, Jerry
did you buy from a dealer and then you are picking up? Or factory direct?
I spoke with the factory and they prefer you buy from a dealer.....they are not staffed for prep/delivery to the public. The dealer in Schoolcraft Michigan is only and hour drive from the factory. They are not charging any delivery or set up fees. So we are taking delivery at the dealership in Schoolcraft, Mi.
Not sure about your truck needing wd and sway control. My truck weighs 9200 lbs dry with a tow capacity of 30K lbs. With the trailer loaded properly 10% plus tongue wt and my truck I think I will be ok without wd and swaycontrol. But I will update after getting trailer if needed.
