Carry Samurai with small 'hauler? Front beds?

If you want a front bed toy hauler, you may have to step up from the smallest size. A Jayco 222 Octane Super Lite might work.

I'm not necessarily stuck on the smallest things I can get, but it will be just me traveling for the forseeable future. I'm a single guy with no kids, so I don't have a need for a house on wheels. Rather just a place to sleep, and make dinner inside if needed. I also don't want to end up with a super heavy trailer if I can avoid it. I'm sure the truck will handle it just fine, but why lug all that extra weight around if I don't need to?

The front bed desire was because when I'm traveling, I typically drive until I get tired, then look for a place to stop and sleep for a while, which often will be well beyond closing time of most camp grounds, so I stop off a random Forest Road somewhere. At that point, I just want to walk into the camper, and go to sleep without unloading the rear or other major set up. In days gone by, when I would be sleeping in the bed of the truck, I always made sure to have the sleeping area open so I could just climb in the back and go to sleep.

So all that said, I'd rather step up a size class or two if that's what it takes, I just don't want to end up with some kind of 39 foot multiple slide monster of a trailer, lol.

The smallest toy haulers have a dual-purpose rear space. The Jayco 222 I mentioned has a front bed, then sofas in the back that fold up for hauling or down for sleeping. So if you are by yourself you could easily just use the front bed. Dry weight is 5270, 26'5" long.

I'm looking at small toy haulers because sometimes I expect to travel by myself, and could use the front bed--and at other times may have 3-4 grandchildren with me, and would have plenty of sleeping space in the back.

With a 2500 lb. toy and water, propane, food and other camping gear, you will need a camper with a CCC (cargo carrying capacity) of 3500 lbs. or more. Also your toy is 11'-3" long and 5' wide. You will probably be looking at something like a Work and Play to get that kind of CCC. They have 4400 lb. and 5200 lb. axles instead of the 3500 lb. axles most others have. With more CCC comes more weight to provide the strength in the frame. The W&P campers are heavy with a heavy tongue and require a HD truck.
