I couldn't justify a TH for a couple of pedal bikes... Throw em in the back of the truck or pick up a bike rack. Lot more options with a TT

Hi, although mine carries a lot of different toys, there are many times its just a couple of bikes. With the toyhauler you also get the extra capacities for fresh water and waste not to mention the gen set.

Exactly - I went with a TH for the same reasons.

150 gal freshwater
+ 116 gallon combined black and greywater
+ 5500 watt power source

= Hurricane Kit.

If thinking light and well made ( the two don't necessarily go together) I would suggestHere

Thanks again randy328. MXT20 sounds great.

Now my challenge is finding a dealer who stocks them anywhere near me. Unfortunately there is no dealer in Las Vegas. Nearest dealer is SoCal and they don't have one in stock. After having no local dealer on my first trailer, I really want to find something that has local dealer support.

Thank you. How long have you had it? any problems or things you would suggest being aware of?

Having heard and read all the horror stories about many new trailers and the issues people have, I was pleasantly surprised that I have had no issues with it. The KZ construction is solid, everything worked at delivery and is still working. Took delivery in January. I race motorcycles, and have taken it on about 25 weekends all over Texas and slept about 45 nights in it so far this year. Added a satellite dish, TV, and pillowtop/foam topper on the main queen bed. My teammate sleeps on the rear queen and says it sleeps fine. Also added the windspeed sensor on the awning ($75).

I like that everything folds up and gives me 17' of cargo space. Carry three race bikes, a pit bike, rolling tool chest, pit equipment, stands, fuel jugs (5), gear, and can still get inside and walk around to get to the bathroom or fridge while on the road. By the way, fridge has been running since January either on shore/generator or propane. No issues.

Mounted a Honda eu3000 on the tray in front (had a welder build me a locking system with 1" steel rod) and it powers everything (at a race track, there are no quiet times. Inside, I can barely hear my generator, anyway). Did add the Coleman hard start on the AC ($30), can run the AC pretty much continuous. It keeps us cool in the Texas heat. Last weekend, 100 degrees outside amd inside I was still at 72. Also added an electric jack because I'm lazy.

I get about 11 mpg with it.

Bottom line, impressed with KZ and love the MXT20.

Is there any toy hauler new or used other than MXT 20 or Stealth 2313 around 25' or less with wrap around queen bed?

Did notice the KZ MXT 20 which is 24'5"

I have the KZ MXT20 and love it - lightweight, lots of cargo space, two queen beds. Everything folds up it seems. I haul four motorcycles in it.

Thank you. How long have you had it? any problems or things you would suggest being aware of?

If I were you, I'd wait until Lance Travel Trailers brings out their all new Toy Haulers. They're due on the market sometime in January iirc. You'll have a really well made lightweight trailer, with a walk around bed, plus a 2 year warranty! Fiberglass exterior, etc.

They are a super quality build w/ all the accouterments that the regular Lance Travel Trailers have.

Or try their bunkhouse model which has a backdoor that turns into a storage area when the bunks are up. Plenty of room for 2 bikes and gear.

A kayak or canoe is something we were thinking about :)

Personally for 2 bicycles I would get a regular travel trailer and add a hitch carrier to the back of the trailer. You will get a lot more for your money and no need to pull a toy hauler they are very heavy in comparison.

Hey!! This IS the toyhauler forum man! You can't tell someone not to get a toyhauler in here!! I'M JUST KIDDING!! You make a good point, but it seems more people are going to toyhaulers because of their ability to haul lots of "stuff." I bought my first one (a Keystone Hobbi) to haul ATVs, then came dirt bikes. Now I have a Jayco Octane (LOVE IT!!) and I now have a golf cart (I have played a total of two rounds of golf in my life...who would have thought I'd have a golf cart). Will probably haul my smoker in it next Fourth of July (it's a heavy sucker). So, while the OP may just want to haul bicycles now, he may one day see the "light" and buy a motorized vehicle. Or maybe a kayak, or a canoe, or maybe he wants to take a sofa camping (I have a freind that does that!!)...:D
