Help finding small toyhauler options

I would like help getting a list of smaller toy hauler options. I am looking for a 18-22 foot toy hauler that I can pull with my 1/2 ton pickup. I need a tall trailer and rear door. Need 83 " height. I have looked at two so far that would work; the Track and Trail 17RTH and the Jayco 161. The 17RTH is nice but the shower is so small it seems unusable?? The 161 has a bigger shower and an outside shower but lacks storage cabinets inside. I could make either one work but I want to make sure I have looked at all my viable options. Please send me list of any trailers that you think would be worth looking at. Feel free to offer any opinions you have on the two I listed above also.

Thanks, Steve

    I have a pacific coachworks powerlite 19cbxl. We love it no issues big ramp and its 102" wide. We fit a rzr 800 4 seater in it.

    I went through this exercise two years ago. Two things I wanted in a toy hauler. A real shower and a place to sleep without removing the motorcycle. And it had to be under 20 feet . The only one I found was a forest river gray wolf 19RR.
    If I pull into a rest stop for the night I didn't want to remove the motorcycle and leave it outside so I could go to sleep on a pulldown bed. The 19 RR is a fantastic toy hauler.

    Shockwave has an 18 and 21 foot.. I own the 21 foot and it has plenty of cabinets and a full rv shower. I have a 3/4 ton, but the 21 foot only weighs 5,400 dry and would be under 7k loaded. I wouldn't pull it across the mountains like I do frequently with a half ton, but it's within the half ton towing limit.
